Invited Student Paper - 5th Generation Low-cost Efficient Wireless Intelligent Sensors (LEWIS 5) for Transportation

Low-cost Efficient Wireless Intelligent Sensors (LEWIS) are a version of standard Wireless Smart Sensors (WSS) that allow for high versatility while minimizing cost and maximizing energy efficiency. LEWIS implements energy harvesting capabilities, wireless communication, and an interchangeable sensor interface. Additionally, LEWIS contains multiple generations, which have proven beneficial in structural health monitoring. However, the 5th and newest generation, LEWIS 5, has been developed to conduct a series of different tasks. These tasks include structural health monitoring and tasks such as water quality monitoring, which can be applied to resolve some critical issues of transportation. This paper serves to showcase LEWIS 5 and its capabilities alongside its potential applications within the field of transportation.
