I've fallen behind on my industry reading. In their November issue, Sensors Magazine named Moteiv's Tmote Invent system one of the top 50 products of 2006. The complete article is available here, the Tmote Invent is on page 9 Needless to say, I am very excited about this recognition, and I only wish that we were notified about it, rather than finding this information during a random internet surfing.
Moteiv announces the release of Boomerang 2.0.4 that includes numerous bug fixes and additions from the previous Boomerang releases. Notable changes in 2.0.4 include:
- New applications including a Remote Control using Tmote Invent
- Lower power consumption and active energy monitoring
- New dissemination protocol for data buffers (Spram)
- New Tmote drivers, motelist, and bootstrap loader for increased robustness
- Updates to match TinyOS 2.x interfaces and TEPs
- Bug fixes and performance improvements

Boomerang can be downloaded for free from Moteiv
A brief blurb at Tmote Invent is in the June 2006 print issue of Physics Today. There are a number of very interesting sensors also in the article, such as a digital pyrometer and MEMS microphone. Check it out at the link below.
