Integrating wireless sensor networks with CE devices for health care activity tracking in the home environment

Wireless sensing devices containing limited processing and communication capabilities are becoming available for all sorts of purposes. An important problem is to integrate networks of these sensors with the existing CE en IT infrastructure such that a) data coming out of the sensor network can be displayed and stored naturally, b) sensor networks can be programmed and configured intuitively and c) CE/IT devices can actually use the sensors for advanced applications. In this paper we describe a programming system that addresses and solves these problems.
