Gathering sensor data from a sensor testbed
Überdust operates as a client to the Testbed-Runtime, a sensor testbed platform we have installed as part of the WISEBED Network. Testbed-Runtime supports multiple sensor types and can easily be extended to more. In addition, an outside user can interact with the connected sensors through the Testbed-Runtime services such as device/sensor reservation for a period of time, uploading custom applications to a selection of sensor devices, enable/disable nodes of the network and more.
Currently we collect sensor readings from :
- iSense Core Module 1 (JN5139R1 proccessor),
- iSense Core Module 2,3 (JN5148 proccessor),
- TelosB (Msp 430F1611 proccessor) and
- Arduino Pro
To collect all Sensor Readings each device must be flashed with an application that periodically reports back Sensor Readings in a predefined format.
The Structure that gathers information from Testbed-Runtime can be described in the following graph:
- Sensor Specific Applications
- Testbed Runtime Configuration
- Data Listener Service
- Node Flasher Application
