Data acquisition

General desciption of Data acquisition:

Data acquisition is the process of sampling signals that measure real world physical conditions and converting the resulting samples into digital numeric values that can be manipulated by a computer. Data acquisition systems, abbreviated by the acronyms DAS or DAQ, typically convert analog waveforms into digital values for processing. The components of data acquisition systems include:

  • Sensors, to convert physical parameters to electrical signals.
  • Signal conditioning circuitry, to convert sensor signals into a form that can be converted to digital values.
  • Analog-to-digital converters, to convert conditioned sensor signals to digital values.

 
Data acquisition applications are usually controlled by software programs developed using various general purpose programming languages
So, as a summary, Data acquisition is in itself a vast group of protocols, technologies, sensors, hardware and software…

Associated Results

Through innovative algorithms and statistical methods, possible data sources for predictive quality control can be identified and evaluated. Moreover, by cooperation of all project partners, the realization of data access and acquisition along the whole process chain can be realized. With a focus on algorithms and methodology, a use case-specific algorithm is going to be implemented and validated to maintain high prediction accuracy.

Data availability is a challenge: Limited access to measurement data (due to limited access to third-party systems)
