Fundamentals Prefi Flashcards
Converts the sunlight in to usable solar energy using N-type and P-type semiconductor
Solar Panel
Defined as energy that comes from resources which are naturally replenished on a human timescale
Renewable energy
French physicist discovered the photovoltaic effect while experimenting with a cell made of metal electrodes in a conducting solution. He noted that the cell produced more electricity when it was exposed to light.
Edmond Becquerel
The energy, heat, and light from the sun flow away in the form of .
Electromagnetic radiation
A energy from the sun that is converted into thermal or electrical energy.
Solar power
Some toxic materials and hazardous products used during the manufacturing process of solar which can indirectly affect the environment.
Photovoltaic systems
First solar collector created by Swiss scientist in 1767, he take an insulated box enclosed with three layers of glass which suck up heat energy.
Horace-Benedict de Saussure
It dependent on sunlight to effectively gather solar energy. Therefore, a few cloudy, rainy days can have a noticeable effect on the energy system. You should also take into account that solar energy cannot be collected during the night.
Solar panels
A collectors concentrate sunlight using mirror or lenses and are generally used for fulfilling heat requirements up to 300 degree C / 20 bar pressure in industries, and for electric power production.
High-temperature
Solar energy is clean. It creates no carbon emissions or other heat-trapping . It avoids the environmental damage associated with mining or drilling for fossil fuels.
greenhouse gases
One of the most common ways to use solar power
Photovoltaic systems
You can generate electricity as
Photovoltaics
One of the most common ways to use solar thermal
heat
A radiant light and heat from the Sun that is harnessed using a range of ever-evolving technologies
Solar energy
It makes it possible to collect and analyze massive amounts of data in real time. IoT devices also enable automation. They allow people to gain more control over their environments, health, and even safety.
IoT in business
Refers to personal and wearable devices that connect to the internet. These devices are often referred to as smart devices.
Consumer IoT
Where the vast amounts of data that is generated by IoT devices are stored, processed, and analyzed. The platforms provide the infrastructure and tools that are needed to store and analyze this data, as well as to build and deploy IoT applications.
Cloud computing
A computing framework. It aims to conserve resources and speed up response time by moving computational resources like data storage closer to the data source.
Edge computing
Convert real-world variables into data that devices can interpret and share. Many different types of sensors exist. For example, temperature sensors detect heat and convert temperature changes into data.
Sensor technologies
Removing the need to perform mundane tasks like turning the thermostat on and off or locking doors increases efficiency and quality of life.
Automation
Being explored as a way to improve security and privacy in the IoT. and can be used to create secure, decentralized networks for IoT devices, which can minimize data security vulnerabilities.
Blockchain
Too many connected devices on a shared network results in slow internet speed
Bandwidth
Provide organizations with technical expertise and team leadership. They also design and implement new methods to increase efficiency.
Technical IoT project manager
Self-driving cars and other connected vehicles rely on the internet to share real-time information. Sensors throughout the vehicle help map its surroundings, transmit camera footage, and respond to traffic signals
Autonomous vehicles
Establish the context of a device within the larger network to enable this communication. The patterns, like numeric or alphanumeric strings. One example of a UID that you might be familiar with is an internet protocol (IP) address. They can identify a single device (instance identifier) or the class to which that device belongs (type identifier).
Unique identifiers
To make sense of the vast amounts of data generated by IoT devices, businesses need to use advanced analytics tools to extract insights and identify patterns. These tools can include machine learning algorithms, data visualization tools and predictive analytics models.
Big data analytics
It refers to a network of physical devices, vehicles, appliances, and other physical objects that are embedded with sensors, software, and network connectivity, allowing them to collect and share data.
Internet of Things
Sensors are devices that can detect changes in the environment, such as temperature, humidity, light, motion, or pressure.
Sensors and actuators
A devices that can cause physical changes in the environment, such as opening or closing a valve or turning on a motor
Actuators
