Summary: In experimental scientific development, technological devices play a crucial role in innovation and the genesis of new technologies. The increasing diversity of these devices, manufactured by different suppliers with distinct specificities, generates heterogeneity that translates into conflicting operating modes, communication protocols, and data standards. This scenario imposes significant challenges to sensor integration. Added to this are recurring operational tasks such as driver installation, library configuration, and incompatibility resolution, aggravated by the premature obsolescence of drivers in the face of constant operating system updates. To address these limitations, this dissertation proposes an architecture focused on standardizing the use of sensors, materialized in a computational tool designed to optimize the usability and interoperability of devices. Inspired by the Linux kernel structure, the architecture allows drivers to operate agnostically to the operating system, responding to a standardized interface. The solution uses container technology for driver distribution, which communicate via RPC (Remote Procedure Call) interface. The model provides a control application to which the drivers attach, allowing transparent use through a defined call flow. The orchestration of the structure is performed via YAML (Docker Compose) files, which enables agile reconfiguration for different experimental scenarios.
