Introduction: Why Pressure Sensing Matters in Modern Domestic Appliances For most of its history, a domestic appliance did one job. A gas meter counted gas. A blood pressure monitor inflated a cuff. A coffee machine pushed water through grounds. Today, those same devices are expected to connect to the cloud, respond to safety events in real time, operate for years on a single battery, and report data accurately enough for billing purposes. Pressure sensing is central to all of it. Whether it...

The Accidental Hacking of 7,000 Robot Vacuums proves that manufacturers are still shipping IoT-enabled products with serious security vulnerabilities Sammy Azdoufal just wanted to steer his new DJI Romo robot vacuum with a video game controller. While building his own remote-control app with the help of an AI coding assistant, he reverse-engineered how the vacuum communicated with DJI's cloud servers in order to extract an authentication token. That token, it turned out, worked for rather...
