AB There are several specific solutions for accessing sensors and actuators present in anyprocess or system through a TCP/IP network, either local or a wide area type like the Internet.The usage of sensors and actuators of different nature and diverse interfaces (SPI, I2C, analogue, etc.)makes access to them from a network in a homogeneous and secure way more complex. A framework,including both software and hardware resources, is necessary to simplify and unify networked accessto these devices. In this paper, a set of open-source software tools, specifically designed to cover thedifferent issues concerning the access to sensors and actuators, and two proposed low-cost hardwarearchitectures to operate with the abovementioned software tools are presented. They allow integratedand easy access to local or remote sensors and actuators. The software tools, integrated in the freeauthoring tool Easy Java and Javascript Simulations (EJS) solve the interaction issues between thesubsystem that integrates sensors and actuators into the network, called convergence subsystem in thispaper, and the Human Machine Interface (HMI)—this one designed using the intuitive graphicalsystem of EJS—located on the user’s computer. The proposed hardware architectures and softwaretools are described and experimental implementations with the proposed tools are presented.
