Mica 2 motes(900 Mhz): 24 nos – Temperature and Light sensors. The hardware platform consists of Processor/Radio boards (MPR) commonly referred to as Motes. These battery-powered devices run Crossbow's XMesh self-forming, micro-power, networking stack. In addition to running the XMesh networking stack, each Mote runs the open-source TinyOS operating system which provides low-level event and task management.
