A list of small projects that can be used for a variety of purposes, e.g., course projects, PhD rotations, and undergrad/master students research in the lab.

Wireless Sensor Networks

1. Appliance Metering System

  • Use IPv6 stack over low-power wireless networks (6LoWPAN and ROLL).
  • Use of modern metering equipment (can be custom built) for 110V and 220V appliances.
  • One and three phase metering. Support outlet and inductive metering.
  • Metering in the junction box.
  • Issue of reliable, efficient, and scalable transport of data.


2. Learning and Experiment with CoAP

Rigorous experimentation with a number of CoAP libraries. Can be a comparative study, or a deep dive into the usefulness of CoAP. Among other things (your innovation) report on memory use, latency, etc. With CoAP you should be able to even mix TinyOS and Contiki motes and take the data all the way to the cloud. Address questions such as: Does this make your application more RESTful? This offers a fruitful ground for experiments!


3. Comparison of CTP vs. Blip or a Hands-on Exploration of Blip


4. Learn and Experience Allseen

Implementation and report on your experience of using AllSeen.


5. Systematic Comparison of IoT Cloud Services

Explore for yourself if the cloud is worthy and useful. Which one are easy to use services? What was the added value? To aid you in this task, here is a starter list of services:
