How a sensor network works

What you need for a sensor network computer Base Motes

How this works together Problems to solve

Basics of motes, base and computer

An example of a base

Security

Why we need security Denial of service attack

Jamming Node capture Privacy

Key sharing

How robots use the network

Without communication robots would allocate tasks inefficiently

How a robot uses the network

Fault Tolerant Robots

What we mean by fault tolerant A look at the ALLIANCE program

Our simulators

OS for these simulators is Linux Player Stage Gazebo

Example of Stage

Web site for stage http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/stage/stage.html

A look to the future

Sampling for Research Rescue missions Put a robot(s) in a place where it is not

safe for people

Conclusion

We need to address security Privacy could be a problem very soon Still a lot of work to be done in my

project
