Abstract

We describe the Sun1 Small Programmable Object Technology, or Sun SPOT. The Sun SPOT is a small wireless computing platform that runs Java1 directly, with no operating system. The system comes with an on-board set of sensors, and I/O pins for easy connection to external devices, and supporting software.
