Ubiquitous Sensor Networks Event in Korea
Ubiquitous Sensor Networks (USN) is the concept of having huge numbers of sensors networked by wireless for reasons as varied as monitoring and controlling the microclimate in industrial greenhouses and hospitals to monitoring weather and pollution in rivers and the sea. The millions to billions of tags involved will often have RFID and power sources and be made by printing to achieve the necessary very low cost. The Korean government is taking a lead in this as well as the US Army, Intel and the Holst Centre in the Netherlands. To assist the process, the Koreans are organising an exhibition with associated meetings.
