Multisensor Module for Networked Infomechanical Systems

The ability to remotely monitor the dynamics of a natural environment is an increasingly important avenue for investigating and ultimately protecting natural ecosystems and safeguarding public health. NIMS provides a new capability for mobile monitoring of complex environments. NIMS enables the first spatiotemporally resolved sensing capability for applications including microclimate characterization in the forest canopy by using this new multisensor module.
