[Tinyos-help] Patenting WSN based systems

[Xavier Orduña]

Hi

With my team we are developing a system to use wireless sensor networks 
tecnology (based in TinyOS and one TinyOS compatible device) to help 
emergency services. For the moment no one on the world is doing 
something similar (it is suposed). This is because we ask ourselves if 
it is possible to patent a product based in wireless sensor networks. It 
is important to say that we are in Europe.

Then, the main question is: What about patenting wsn based services?

I know this is not a really TinyOS question, but I think there could be 
someone that is facing a similar problem.

Thanks

Xavi
