Commercial Applications of Wireless Sensor Networks Using ZigBee

After around a decade of active research on wireless sensor networks, recent standards released are stimulating the development of commercial products. One of these standards is ZigBee. This article highlights some of the lessons from the field that went into the standard. It also describes the ecosystem emerging around Zigbee, and the enabling trends in that ecosystem. New areas of activity in the ZigBee standards body are highlighted as well
