Re: [Tinyos-help] Sending/Receiving Video with TelosB

Hello Sean,

You may want to have a look at this paper [1]. Although it deals with micaZ, 
the scenario it focuses on is very similar to yours since telosB and micaZ have 
the same radio and their MAC layer implementation is pretty similar (in TinyOS).

Good luck!

Re: [Tinyos-help] Sending/Receiving Video with TelosB

2012-10-18 Thread
I have experimented with transmitting compressed audio on TelosB but video 
usually means much more data. With the tinyos packet size this means a huge 
number of packets. I think the issue here would be how long would you be able 
to support this configuration before the battery runs out on the motes.

Hi everyone,

Do you think it is possible to send/receive video with any quality between 
TelosB motes?

Here is the scenario:

There is a TelosB connected to PC using USB (serial port obviously) and there 
is another TelosB that has a digital cammra attached to it (using the 10 pin 
header). Do you think this scenario is practical, considering the data rate and 
other criterias?

Regards,
Sean.

Hi Sean
you should do any previous research to be aware of the current advances and 
limitations with regard to the video transmission with wireless sensor 
networks. Search papers with the following topic: "wireless multimedia sensor 
networks". Then, you might find out valuable answers for your concerns. 
In particular, transmitting multimedia information requires high energy and 
computational resources. If you want to transmit video, you might need any 
special hardware or software to conduct the compression of the images 
(according with any standard, e.g., H264, JPEG2000, etc.) captured by the video 
sensor. In this sense, you shoud take care of the image format (CIF, QCIF...), 
the memory storage of telosb in order to store the images, etc... Again, you 
need a serial background.
Good luck, 
David

Hi everyone,
 

 
Do you think it is possible to send/receive video with any quality 
between TelosB motes?
 

 
Here is the scenario:
 

 
There is a TelosB connected to PC using USB (serial port obviously) and 
there is another TelosB that has a digital cammra attached to it (using the 10 
pin header). Do you think this scenario is practical, considering the data rate 
and other criterias?
 

 
Regards,
 
Sean.

[Tinyos-help] Sending/Receiving Video with TelosB

2012-10-18 Thread Sean Dekker
Hi everyone,

 Do you think it is possible to send/receive video with any quality between 
TelosB motes?

 Here is the scenario:

 There is a TelosB connected to PC using USB (serial port obviously) and there 
is another TelosB that has a digital cammra attached to it (using the 10 pin 
header). Do you think this scenario is practical, considering the data rate and 
other criterias?

 Regards,
 Sean.
