The SensLAB project deploys a very large scale open wireless sensor network platform. SensLAB’s main and most important goal is to offer an accurate and efficient scientific tool to help in the design, development, tuning, and experimentation of real large-scale sensor network applications.

Ambient and sensor networks have recently emerged as a premier research topic. Sensor networks are a promising approach and a multi-disciplinary venture that combines computer networks, signal processing, software engineering, embedded systems, and statistics on the technology side. On the scientific applications side, it covers a large spectrum: safety and security of buildings or spaces, measuring traffic flows, environmental engineering, and ecology, to cite a few. Sensor networks will also play an essential role in the upcoming age of pervasive computing as our personal mobile devices will interact with sensor networks dispatched in the environment.

SensLAB is a unique scientific tool for the research on wireless sensor networks.

SensLAB is a group of 1K sensor nodes available as a testbed for distributed embedding sensor network application and distributed systems research. Distributed systems based on networked sensors and actuators with embedded computation capabilities allow for an instrumentation of the physical world at an unprecedented scale and density, thus enabling a new generation of monitoring and control applications.
The SensLAB project was started in 2008. As of June 2009, SensLAB was composed of 1024 nodes at 4 sites.

Accounts are available to persons affiliated with corporations and universities that host SensLAB  nodes but also to any researchers for R&D purpose on request.

SensLAB members actively participate in developing tools for the greater good of the community, and as a result each user has a wide choice of tools to use in order to design, compile,  simulate, emulate, debug his/her embedded sensor application. There are a number of free, public services  / tools / package  have been deployed on SensLAB , including drivers, OS portage, network simulator (WSNET) and a software-driven simulator for full platform estimations and debu (WSIM).

SensLAB  forms the core of the an emerging testbed for the future internet of things  technologies.

SensLAB  being funded by the ANR  through the SensLAB TLCOM grant.
