Systems and methods for a wireless sensor network

Abstract

This disclosure provides systems, method, and computer-readable media for operating a sensor network. The sensor network can include an array of sensor devices and gateways. The sensor devices can sense various conditions of an environment. The sensor devices can include temperature sensors, occupancy detectors, access sensors, motion sensors, tracking devices, etc. The sensor devices can also network and communicate with one another and the gateways in an ad hoc or mesh network. The environment can include different locations, such as warehouse, office building, a complex of buildings, cargo vehicles, containers or the like. The sensor network can be deployed for controlling power consumption, logistics, automated manufacturing, healthcare, intelligent buildings, and smart cities among many other implementations. The sensor devices can communicate sensed conditions and transmit data among each other without a predefined route. When a gateway receives the data, the data can be stored and analyzed at a different location.
