Abstract: The Internet of Things is becoming increasingly important in traffic, medical treatment, and other industry fields. With the development of the Internet of Things technology, lots of new “things†need to be accessed to the Internet of Things. Currently, Internet of Things applications adopt multiple methods to access the heterogeneous devices. How to provide unified access means for those “things†is a fundamental issue. To solve this problem, a new method is proposed in this article to design a reconfigurable smart interface for multiple Internet of Things devices. The IEEE 1451 standard is adopted for this design, and it comprehensively specifies the smart transducer design and relevant interface protocol to implement the intelligent acquisition for common sensors and actuators. Field programmable gate array is adopted for the implementation of this design to reduce consumption of resources and enable the reconfiguration of the whole system. Performance of the proposed system is evaluated, and good performance is achieved in practical application for office environment monitoring.
