[Tinyos-help] Motes for outdoor deployment

[Giri Baleri]

Crossbow's eKo nodes for environmental monitoring address both your
needs. 
- They have IP67 rated enclosure for weather-proofness that have been
tested during heavy rain, snow fall etc.
- They also have a rechargeable battery powered by solar panel
delivering 5+ years of battery life.
You can find further details at http://www.xbow.com/eko/

Please note that these are sold as turn-key products only and if this
doesn't meet your application needs, you can design something along
similar lines using an off-the-shelf enclosure and solar panel/battery
combo.

I hope that helps,
Giri

Subject: [Tinyos-help] Motes for outdoor deployment

We are trying to deploy a wireless sensor network in an outdoor
environment. I have the following two questions:

1. How can I get enclosure for MicaZ/TelosB motes, so they can deploy
weather-proof? Could someone recommend some companies?

2. battery is a problem. Is it easy to use solar energy to provide the
energy? again, which company can provide this for MicaZ or TelosB?

Thanks a lot,

Gary
