What is the difference between a sensor network and a mobile ad hoc network?
A sensor network is generally a collection of extremely low power, battery operated, low cost, wireless devices that have built-in sensors. Depending on the type of sensor, they can sense temperature, voltage, light, magnetism, and vibration. Sensor networks are generally not mobile and are generally designed only to transport data for their sensing applications. They are not designed to bridge devices or networks. Wave Relay™ is not a sensor network product.
