International Workshop on Wireless Sensor Network Deployments (WiDeploy 07) |

We report on a home wireless sensor network deployment that utilizes cameras to collect activity information. This paper describes the design choices and the general experience of maintaining such a data-heavy network. The system includes camera nodes, a classifier program to distill the packets into appropriate database tables, and a client-side user interface for diagnosing and interacting with the network.
