Programming The Real World
- 1. Programming the Real-world Introduction to SPOT Peng Deng ∑ SUMLab CSSE University of Melbourne
- 2. • Graduated from MEDC in 2008 • Research assistant in UniMelb – SensorWeb • Software engineer in Daintree Networks – Implement wireless protocol decoder 2
- 3. Agenda • Introduction – Evolution of Computing – WSN • Sun SPOT – What is SPOT – Hardware and Software • Tutorial • Application Demos • My Projects 3
- 4. Evolution of Computing 4 2020 and beyond: Ubiquity Era Thousands of computers per user. 4
- 5. Wireless Sensor Network • Small-scale sensor nodes • Wireless communication • Large scale of deployment • Unattended operation • …… • Environmental monitoring • Security • Defence • Bioinformatics and health • Transportation management • Chemical detection and emergency response 5
- 6. TinyOS and Crossbow • Difficult to setup development environment – TinyOS SDK, JDK, cygwin… • Difficult to program – No process/memory management – Applilcation = scheduler + graph of components – nesC: Low level language • Lack computing power – MICA2 7MHz 128K; MICAz 4MHz 128K • Open source software, propitiatory hardware 6
- 7. What is Sun SPOT • Embedded Development Platform – Flexible hardware and software • Easy to program – Java top to bottom – User programs the device entirely in Java – Using standard Java tools • Connected – Wireless Communication – Mesh networking – Over the Air Programming • Mobile – Built in battery charged through USB • Aware and Active – Able to sense and affect surroundings • Secure – Built-in asymmetric cryptography • Open Source 7 – Software -- Hardware
- 8. Sun SPOT Hardware 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.15.4 Radio Antenna Module CC2420 180 MHz 32 bit 512K RAM ARM920T core 4M Flash USB interface with Daughter board mini-B connector connector 8 Power switch

- 10. Sun SPOT Software • Squawk Virtual Machine – J2ME CLDC 1.1 (cellphone without display) – Runs on bare metal (No OS) – Designed for memory constrained devices – Runs multiple applications (concurrently) • IDE Supported – NetBeans, Eclipse, …… any Java IDE you familiar with 10
- 11. Tutorial Get Data From Sun SPOT PC PC Host Application (Processing) (Processing) Sun SPOT Sun SPOT Base Station Base Station Sun SPOTs Sun SPOTs Embedded Application 11
- 12. App Dev Procedure 1. Create Sun SPOT project or Sun SPOT Host project 2. Implement your application 3. Connect, compile and deploy application to SPOT 12
- 13. Embedded Application Import … public class StartApplication extends MIDlet { protected void startApp() throws MIDletStateChangeException { //application logic } protected void pauseApp() {} //not used protected void destroyApp(boolean unconditional) throws MIDletStateChangeException {} //execute when exit } 13
- 14. Embedded Application //create instances of sensors on board private IAccelerometer3D accel = EDemoBoard.getInstance().getAccelerometer(); private ITemperatureInput tempSensor = EDemoBoard.getInstance().getADCTemperature(); private ILightSensor lightSensor= EDemoBoard.getInstance().getLightSensor(); //application logic—get values from sensors String msg = String.valueOf(accel.getAccelX())+";"+ String.valueOf(accel.getAccelY())+";"+ String.valueOf(accel.getAccelZ())+";"+ String.valueOf(tempSensor.getCelsius())+";"+ String.valueOf(lightSensor.getValue()); //send data back to PC RadiogramConnection conn =(RadiogramConnection)Connector.open("radiogram://0014.4F01.0000.4BFD:100"); Datagram dg = conn.newDatagram(conn.getMaximumLength()); dg.writeUTF(msg); conn.send(dg); conn.close(); 9 lines of code! 14
- 15. Host Application J2SE application RadiogramConnection conn = (RadiogramConnection) Connector.open("radiogram://:100"); Datagram dg = conn.newDatagram(conn.getMaximumLength()); conn.receive(dg); String rawData = dg.readUTF(); System.out.println(rawData); conn.close(); DONE! 15
- 16. Debug Remote App • Create a debug agent – ant debug -DremoteId=0014.4F01.0000.46E0 • Attache IDE Debuger • Add your breakpoints 16
