Applications of MESH and
Sensor Networks
|
|
There are various
applications for wireless sensor networks including
monitoring, tracking or controlling (e.g. habitat monitoring, object tracking,
nuclear reactor control, fire detection, traffic monitoring,
e-grains...).
Such wireless networks are typically installed in regions where it is difficult
to collect the data with wired configurations.
