Abstract :
We present Sensei - a nomadic, relocatable, wireless sensor network (WSN) testbed with support for mobile nodes. The nomadism makes it possible to evaluate a WSN application in different environments ranging from lab environments to in- situ installations to prototype deployments. Other WSN testbeds are often static and can not be easily moved between sites. We also support reproducibility mobility in the testbed, using robots or humans as actuators with movement patterns defined in mobility scripts.
