Arrow Electronics, Inc. (NYSE: ARW) today announced that it will
showcase the latest sensor-based technology solutions and Arrow’s
semi-autonomous motorcar (SAM) at the upcoming Sensors Expo
2015—the largest U.S. conference and technology exhibition
dedicated exclusively to sensors and sensor-integrated
technology.
“The explosive growth of connected devices is driving exciting
advancements in sensor technology, as well as new service offerings
and business opportunities. Arrow and its suppliers look forward to
showcasing many of these cutting-edge solutions at the Expo in
June,” said Aiden Mitchell, vice president of semiconductor
marketing for Arrow. “Our best-in-class technical experts and field
application engineers will be on hand at the Arrow booth to meet
with Expo attendees interested in developing, deploying or scaling
their sensing solutions.”
In addition to its large showcase of sensor-based products and
components, Arrow will display the 2014 Corvette C7 Stingray
semi-autonomous car that it modified for former IndyCar driver and
quadriplegic Sam Schmidt. Schmidt is able to drive the SAM car with
his head—infrared cameras mounted on the car’s dashboard track
sensors on his hat and steer the car according to where he turns
his head. He uses a sip-and-puff mouth device fitted with a
pressure sensor to accelerate and brake.
The Sensors Expo focuses on current sensing challenges while
also exploring the sensing technologies driving tomorrow's
solutions, including the Internet of Things (IoT) and Machine to
Machine (M2M). The Expo will be held June 9-11 at the Long Beach
Convention Center in Long Beach, Calif. Visit Arrow at booth #729,
