Abstract

The recently growing need to experiment with Internet of Things (IoT) technologies in more realistic environments requires the experimenter to have remote and precise observation of heterogeneous IoT devices under test. This paper introduces SmartEye, an energy efficient observer platform for IoT testbeds. SmartEye embeds many features that are currently available on different observer systems into a common platform, while placing energy efficiency for autonomous operation at the core of its design. It will provide the foundation for a new class of IoT testbeds to be deployed in more realistic testbed environments such as cities, urban areas or more remote deployment environments without compromising on the rich observational and management features provided by today's observer boards.
