San Jose, CA - February XX, 2008
Crossbow Technology, Inc. announces the availability of the TinyOS 2.0 Operating System for Crossbow's advanced IRIS motes. This enables developers to use the latest generation software on the latest generation Sensor Network hardware.
Benefits of the Iris mote: Excellent RF range over previous generation motes (3x), substantially lower sleep current (0.5x) and double the program memory (8KB).
Benefits of TinyOS 2.0: Better hardware abstraction model, improved timers, sensor interfaces, power management, arbitration and much more.
The Iris port was created by Vanderbilt University's Institute for Software Integrated Systems which has a well-established, recognized expertise in TinyOS development and provides continuing support of the released code.
For more details please refer to the press release, VU's Institute for Software Integrated Systems or Crossbow Technology, Inc.
