Great WSN videos

Thursday, December 21st, 2006

The Cogent Computing Applied Research Centre has uploaded some great video on WSN on YouTube. In detail:

The Dream and Reality of Wireless Sensor Networks : researchers from the Cogent Computing Applied Research Centre discuss current issues in wireless sensor networks. This video was first aired at IEEE ICIA2006.

Cloud of Points Surface Reconstruction : this animation shows how location information from a wireless sensor network can be used to construct a surface of the physical terrain, using self-organising maps.

Mars Exploration Scenario : an animated film describing the deployment of wireless sensor network technology to explore Mars.

Korea Uses Wireless Mesh for Coastal Sensor Network

Thursday, December 21st, 2006

Koreans are safer from dangerous weather conditions now that the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) has installed wireless mesh networks to monitor islands off the country’s southern coast. The mesh networks connect remote weather forecasting equipment and video cameras to the KMA’s network.

The mesh networks are a good solution for connecting outdoor weather sensors to the main network because they can be used over large areas of land and water, according to Korea Telecom, which installed them. Traditional network cabling would be difficult, time-consuming, and expensive to install in these outlying islands and coastal areas.
