Abstract
A metrological interface device includes a printed circuit board (“PCB”) including at least one metrological sensor communication interface and at least one first wireless communication interface. The metrological interface device is in communication with a metrological sensing device via the metrological sensor communication interface. Each metrological sensing device is coupled to a physical asset. Each metrological interface device is configured to receive the metrological data from the metrological sensing device. The metrological interface device is configured to receive metrological data from the metrological sensing device via the metrological sensor communication interface. Metrological data represents physical measurement data associated with the physical asset. Each metrological interface device is configured to advertise connection availability to a plurality of mobile computing devices, and also configured to receive a connection request from a connecting mobile computing device, and is additionally configured to create an active connection with the connecting mobile computing device.
