Goals
In the EYES project (IST-2001-34734), we develop the architecture
and the technology needed for building self-organizing
and collaborative sensor networks using reconfigurable
smart sensor nodes, which are self-aware, self-reconfigurable
and autonomous. This technology will enable the creation
of a new generation of sensors, which can effectively
network together so as to provide a flexible platform
for the support of a large variety of mobile sensor network
applications.
Both theoretical research results and the implementation
of a prototype will be produced. We will show the
feasibility of the concepts and technologies developed
by means of a prototype in which a sizable network
of sensors will be built and some example applications
demonstrated.
Specifically, we will:
- Create new technologies for communications,
networking and service provision which take
explicitly into account the constraints of sensor
networks
.
- Propose and test a new architecture for flexible
support of mobile sensor network applications.
- Test ideas by building a prototype sensor
network in which to implement the proposed schemes
thereby verifying their effectiveness.
