Abstract
This is a workshop on programming the Sun SPOT on sensor and motor control applications.
The Sun Small Programmable Object Technology (SPOT) is a small, wireless, battery powered experimental platform. It is programmed almost entirely in Java to allow regular programmers to create projects that used to require specialized embedded system development skills. The hardware platform includes a range of built-in sensors as well as the ability to easily interface to external devices. Both the hardware and software are open sourced.
