New 3G Sensors Stream Photo and Video to the Cloud for new Security and Military Applications

New 3G Sensors Stream Photo and Video to the Cloud for new Security and Military Applications

April 8th, 2013 - Libelium

The new Video Camera Sensor board in conjunction with the 3G module for Waspmote allows to take photos and record videos and send them to the Cloud by using high speed 3G, WCDMA and HSPA cellular networks in the same way as Smartphones do. This makes possible sensor nodes send not only discrete sensor information such as temperature or humidity (which can be encoded using just a single number) but also complex streams of information such as photos and videos. This new feature allows developers the creation of new Security, Surveillance and Military applications. Read more.

Detecting Radiation Levels in Fukushima: an example of crowdsourcing

Detecting Radiation Levels in Fukushima: an example of crowdsourcing

February 22nd, 2013 - Alberto Bielsa

The creation of the Radiation Sensor Board was motivated by the nuclear disaster in Fukushima after the unfortunate earthquake and tsunami that struck Japan in March 2011. We wanted to help authorities to measure the levels of radiation of the affected zones without compromising the life of the security and rescue teams. For this reason we designed in just 3 weeks a Geiger Counter sensor board for Waspmote, which could read the radiation levels automatically and send the information in real time using wireless technologies like ZigBee and 3G/GPRS to the control point without human intervention.

Smart Parking and environmental monitoring in one of the world’s largest WSN

Smart Parking and environmental monitoring in one of the world’s largest WSN

February 22nd, 2013 - Alberto Bielsa

SmartSantander is an ambitious project leaded by Telefonica that proposes a unique in the world city-scale experimental research facility sufficiently large, open, flexible and horizontal to stimulate the development of new applications by researchers, companies and citizens. At the same time, the network must provide services to Santander inhabitants such as helping them to find free parking spots and monitoring pollution levels. In this case, Waspmote modularity and flexibility has allowed to incorporate a second communication radio enabling experimentation while ensuring high availability services.
