Sensoria Node Demo ::. Overview
The COUGAR
System is a platform for testing query processing
techniques over ad-hoc sensor networks. Please refer to
the
main COUGAR homepage for a general description of
the system. Our demo for BOOM '03 will show how the
Sensoria nodes can be used to track moving objects.
A Tracking GUI will be used to specify simulated motion
tracks, and then the main COUGAR GUI will detect these
motion tracks and display them onscreen. The
public demo is
available for testing online. In addition, we
will describe how the Sensoria nodes can be used in
conjunction with Mica motes to form a large sensor
network.

Mica Mote Demo ::. Overview
The COUGAR System is
a platform for testing query processing techniques over
ad-hoc sensor networks. Please refer to the
main COUGAR homepage for a general description of
the system. Our demo for BOOM '03 will show how a
network of Mica motes can be used to retrieve
environmental data such as light and temperature
readings.
One important
feature of our network is its use of geographical
routing, where each mote knows its neighbors and is able
to efficiently direct messages to those neighbors. The
network includes a protocol for the motes to
continuously poll its neighbors to see if a link in the
network has been broken.
Another feature
is the usage of in-memory databases on each of the
motes. Tables in these databases can be used to store a
mote's neighbors, recent sensor readings that can be
aggregated, or a mote's location. The database system is
extremely flexible, allowing for future functionality
additions.
