Project Sensaware
Start date: May 2008
End date: April 2009
Sensaware is a research project focused on the design of a new generation of alarm control panels with high-level context information interpretation and native spontaneous communication with ZigBee-based wireless sensor networks.
Sensaware is funded by the Plan Avanza.
Description
Sensaware provides three main innovations:
- IEEE 802.15.4/ZigBee connectivity: in order to collect all the information from wireless sensors deployed in the environment, even in mobile/roaming entities.
- Location capabilities: based on RSSi signals from the ZigBee-based wireless sensor nodes.
- Intelligent context interpretation mechanisms: using semantic representation and soft computing techniques (neutral networks, fuzzy logic), in order to provide higher level interpretation of data to identify malicious behaviour.
