Sensor networks and embedded communication platforms are currently gaining a fascinating interest in a wide range of applications where interactions with the environment play a critical role; it is the case for example with telemetry, remote maintenance, environmental monitoring, home automation, etc. The project aims at developing a generic and reliable framework based on SDIO which will support any – standard or proprietary - radio sensor network protocols and to provide interoperability with the Internet via wireless communication networks (GSM/GPRS/UMTS). The development will enhance the ongoing Netbox development at NetModule which will provide a SDIO host interface.
