Abstract
In a described embodiment, a sensor-based communication apparatus () is disclosed. The communication apparatus () comprises a plurality of sensor nodes () associated with respective unique pulse signatures () and adapted to communicate with respective sensors () with each sensor () configured to generate a sensory signal () in response to a respective stimulus (). Each sensor node () is triggered, upon receipt of the corresponding sensory signal (), to transmit the associated unique pulse signature () independently and asynchronously through a transmission medium () shared by the sensor nodes (), and the unique pulse signatures () transmitted by the sensor nodes () being a representation () of a stimulus event associated with the stimuli detected by the corresponding sensors (). A method and a communication medium are also disclosed.
