Zusammenfassung:A Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is made up of a large number of sensors which are extremely small, low-cost, and low-power devices that collect environmental data (acoustics, light, temperature, humidity, imaging, etc.) that is then communicated through radio or optical means to infrastructure processing nodes. WSNs may consist of up to thousands of nodes, which can be deployed in very high density, in homes, highways, buildings, cities, and infrastructures for monitoring and/or controlling purposes. Applications may range from detecting and monitoring occurrences of natural disasters and homeland security, to military surveillance. This introduction to emerging WSN applications reveals how developments in micro- and nanotechnology have aided advancements in WSNs and highlights implementation of several real systems that hint of tomorrow's potential
