Conclusion 29g controlled-mobile aerial sensor network

platform for indoor emergency fire monitoring applications.

Achieve performance in both sensing quality and coverage that matches or exceeds pre-deployed static network infrastructures.

OUTLINE Motivation Contribution Hardware Design Software Architecture Hardware Characterization Evaluation Conclusion Discussion

Discussion Strength

Use simple devices to achieve performance needed.

Weakness The platform is focus on fire monitoring

applications, but the design did not use temperature and smoke information.

Flight time may not sufficient.
