Abstract
As computers, sensors, and wireless communication have become smaller, cheaper, and more sophisticated, wireless transducer platforms have become a focus of research and commercial interest. This report describes an investigation into such platforms. It presents a new taxonomy of transducer systems, describes the construction of prototypes of a new transducer device designed for ease of application development, and discusses commercialization issues.
