Alps Electric to Exhibit at Major Chinese Trade Show ELEXCON 2017
Japanese electronic components manufacturer Alps Electric Co., Ltd. (TOKYO: 6770; President: Toshihiro Kuriyama; Head Office: Tokyo) will exhibit at ELEXCON 2017, to be held at the Shenzhen Convention & Exhibition Center in Shenzhen, China, from December 21. The company will introduce a wide range of technologies, particularly in the Internet of Things (IoT) domain.
At ELEXCON China 2017, one of China’s largest electronics expositions, Alps Electric will showcase technologies and solutions targeting each of the Internet of Things (IoT), Mobile and Automotive markets.
＜Exhibit Highlight: IoT Sensor Network Module＞
IoT Sensor Network Module
A sensor network module for collecting a variety of data, essential for IoT business creation. Integrating low-power, high-precision and compact sensors with a Bluetooth® communication module, the product is capable of acquiring pressure, temperature, humidity, ambient light and other environmental data, as well as six-axis (geomagnetism + acceleration) sensing.
A special app (for Android) is available for viewing data on a smartphone or tablet and for changing settings. In addition, radio certification has already been acquired for various regions around the world, allowing smooth, low-cost progression to demonstration testing.
At ELEXCON 2017, we will present actual application examples in areas including abnormality detection in factory facilities and agricultural ICT.
Other exhibits include the HAPTIC™ Reactor, which uses vibrations with outstanding responsiveness to realistically recreate the feel of objects in virtual reality; the compact, ink-free Inkless Mobile Printer ideal for carrying around; and V2X (Vehicle-to-X) Communication Modules, which Alps Electric started mass-producing before the rest of the industry. These products have all performed well on the market.
If you are at ELEXCON 2017, please stop by the Alps Electric booth.
