Wireless sensor network provides ‘ring of fire’
Submitted by nestorb on Fri, 2006-11-17 22:38. A wireless sensor network that uses software agents using heat seeking sensors can navigate a robot safely through a simulated fire. In addition, once the agent locates the fire, it can clone itself, which will then create a ring of software around the fire, said researchers at Washington University in St. Louis. A fireman can then communicate with this agent through a ....
