5WIRELESSLY NETWORKING PROPELLER CHIPS
Introduction
This chapter looks at how your Propeller can be part of a wireless sensor network (WSN) to share data through wireless communications. WSNs are not intended for large data transfers, such as files, but small amounts of data back and forth. The Propeller is an amazing controller, and its ability to perform parallel processing makes data communications fast and simple for use in a WSN. While the main task is being carried out, other cogs can be sending or receiving data on the network.
With a lot to discuss and learn along the way, the final completed project of this chapter, depicted in Fig. 5-1, will be a three-node network that has:
A tilt-controller node transmitting drive and ...
