Intelligent sensor : machine prognostics on a chip

Failures of vital factory equipment are often the reason for production stoppages and a regular maintenance schedule is required to ensure proper operation of all factory equipment. However, these method of maintenance can be both costly and inefficient. Vibrations are present in all machinery with...
