GENERATION ACTIVE RFID
way that it is ideally suited for large scale WSNs that have highly dynamic sensor nodes. As location
is such an important aspect, this has been incorporated into the network stack itself, enabling
SmartPoints to compute their position themselves, therefore you do not require any complex or
expensive back office software to calculate positions.
11.1.4 Who uses Wireless Sensor Networks?
WSN technology is becoming more and more popular, but primarily industrial users have adopted
it. Nevertheless, whether it is for home, office, warehouse, transport vehicles, Ambient Systems has a
solution for it.
Generally
● No need for cables
● Simple and easy to use

alerts
● All-in-1
Small Office
● Temperature Monitoring
● Humidity Monitoring
● Localization of valuable Assets, such as laptops, beamers, and so forth
Warehouses
● Temperature Monitoring, for example in climate controlled storage
● Humidity Monitoring
● Door Monitoring
● Localization of valuable assets, such as forklifts, containers, and so forth.
In-Transit
● Used for Returnable Transport Items (RTIs) such as rolling containers, pallets, and so forth,
in order to check their temperature, track their location, and trace their history using 1 MB of
data storage
● Provided detailed information about what RTIs are in your transport vehicle
11.1.5 Where are Wireless Sensor Networks used?
WSN technology is expanding everywhere. The power of self-organizing, self-healing, ad-hoc, mesh
networks can be applied in almost every application scenarios.
Ambient Systems Channel Partners have applied the technology in many diverse applications.
● ... in cold chain scenarios, monitoring the temperature and logging weeks of data which is
flushed upon return,
● in the Great Barrier Reef, monitoring the status of buoys which communicate using the WSN
back bone infrastructure, before transmitting the data to the shore,
