Abstract :
This paper describes the development of multi-node sensor network based on free space optics. The sensor network employs sensor nodes implemented with adjustable mirror devices built to simulate a cube corner reflector macroscopically. We have confirmed the feasibility of the mirror devices to construct a long-range optical sensor network.
