Applications of Wireless Sensor Networks.

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are spreading around in multiple fields of applications because they perform measuring tasks in a flexible way. This paper presents a survey on nowadays research efforts on the application of these WSNs to the automobile industry, to agriculture, and to wearable technologies (healthcare and athletes monitoring). From our practical deployments, it is important to highlight the functionalities for the automotive industry, and the results extracted from our application to a vineyard. Research on wearable technologies constitutes a challenge, and wireless healthcare solutions in the context of fabrics are being addressed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
