Feature list of the multisensor
Most IoT projects start with a request coming from a business. The product manager in the project then tries to provide a list of features by analyzing the market, competitors, and requirements from the business to fulfill the business goals. Let's assume our product manager comes up with the following feature list for the multisensor:
- The device can measure temperature, humidity, pressure, and ambient light level.
- It has a display to show readings from the sensors. The display shows only one reading at a time.
- Users can switch between sensors by using a rotary encoder.
- A sound warning is generated for high and low temperature values.
- The device sleeps to decrease energy usage when there is no-one around and wakes up when someone is detected.
As we now know the features, we can propose a solution for the project next.
