abstract = {Find My is a crowd-sourced network of hundreds of millions of Apple devices that use Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to detect and track the location of items.

We explore the limits and opportunities of using this proprietary network for large-scale distributed sensing.

The key idea is to let low-cost sensing devices emit specially crafted BLE advertisements that trick nearby Apple devices into generating location reports that carry arbitrary sensor data, which can then be retrieved from the Apple servers.

This paper reports on our ongoing work to reverse engineer the Find My system and to design a protocol for the efficient and reliable collection of data from sensing devices via the Find My network.

Preliminary results from real-world experiments demonstrate the feasibility of our approach and a several-fold performance improvement compared with the state of the art. },

Although the functional innovations for IoT are going full steam ahead, newly-emerging scenarios such as the Internet of Ocean and Implantable Things often come with limited power budgets, challenging deployment scenarios, and demanding computational resources, which fundamentally stress conventional IoT architecture, communications primitives, and sensing capabilities. The goal of this Dagstuhl Seminar was to bring together researchers from both academia and industry globally to i) review the capacity of existing IoT research from radical perspectives; ii) summarize fundamental challenges in modern IoT application scenarios that may then be investigated in joint research projects; and iii) discuss new types of hardware architecture, network stack, and communication primitives for these emerging IoT scenarios.},

abstract = {An important class of cyber-physical systems relies on multiple agents that jointly perform a task by coordinating their actions over a wireless network. Examples include self-driving cars in intelligent transportation and production robots in smart manufacturing. However, the scalability of existing control-over-wireless solutions is limited as they cannot resolve overload situations in which the communication demand exceeds the available bandwidth. This paper presents a novel co-design of distributed control and wireless communication that overcomes this limitation by dynamically allocating the available bandwidth to agents with the greatest need to communicate. Experiments on a real cyber-physical testbed with 20 agents, each consisting of a low-power wireless embedded device and a cart-pole system, demonstrate that our solution achieves significantly better control performance under overload than the state of the art. We further prove that our co-design guarantees closed-loop stability for physical systems with stochastic linear time-invariant dynamics.},

abstract = {Communication among batteryless devices is key to their success in replacing traditional battery-supported systems. However, low and unpredictable availability of ambient energy combined with limited energy storage capacity of the devices make efficient communication challenging. As a stepping stone toward addressing this challenge, we propose to leverage common patterns in harvested energy across the devices. In this abstract, we explore one possible approach that exploits a property of many fluorescent light sources used worldwide: their brightness changes with double the power line frequency. We design a circuit that transforms the corresponding changes in energy harvested with a solar panel into a digital signal that is frequency- and phase-synchronized across multiple devices. Based on our design, we build a novel batteryless node, called Flync. Using two Flync nodes, we demonstrate that the synchronized signal can be generated with less than 1 µA and a maximum measured node to node jitter of 363.24 µs.},

abstract = {Conventional systems for motion context detection rely on batteries to provide the energy required for sampling a motion sensor. Batteries, however, have limited capacity and, once depleted, have to be replaced or recharged. Kinetic Energy Harvesting (KEH) allows to convert ambient motion and vibration into usable electricity and can enable batteryless, maintenance free operation of motion sensors. The signal from a KEH transducer correlates with the underlying motion and may thus directly be used for context detection, saving space, cost and energy by omitting the accelerometer. Previous work uses the open circuit or the capacitor voltage for sensing without using the harvested energy to power a load. In this paper, we propose to use other sensing points in the KEH circuit that offer information-rich sensing signals while the energy from the harvester is used to power a load. We systematically analyze multiple sensing signals available in different KEH architectures and compare their performance in a transport mode detection case study. To this end, we develop four hardware prototypes, conduct an extensive measurement campaign and use the data to train and evaluate different classifiers. We show that sensing the harvesting current signal from a transducer can be energy positive, delivering up to ten times as much power as it consumes for signal acquisition, while offering comparable detection accuracy to the accelerometer signal for most of the considered transport modes.},

abstract = {Simulation tools and testbeds have been proposed to assess the performance of control designs and wireless protocols in isolation. A cyber-physical system (CPS), however, integrates control with network elements, which must be evaluated together under real-world conditions to assess control performance, stability, and associated costs. We present an approach to evaluate CPS relying on embedded devices and low-power wireless technology. Using one or multiple inverted pendulums as physical system, our approach supports a spectrum of realistic CPS scenarios that impose different requirements onto the control and networking elements. Moreover, our approach allows one to flexibly combine simulated and real pendulums, promoting adoption, scalability, repeatability, and integration with existing wireless testbed infrastructures. A case study demonstrates implementation, execution, and measurements using the proposed evaluation approach.},

abstract = {Wired field buses have proved their effectiveness to support Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). However, in avionics, for ease of deployment, or for new functionality featuring mobile devices, there is a strong interest for wireless solutions. Low-power wireless protocols have been proposed, but requirements of a large class of CPS applications can still not be satisfied. This paper presents Time-Triggered-Wireless (TTW), a distributed low-power wireless system design that minimizes energy consumption and offers end-to-end timing predictability, adaptability, reliability, low latency. Our evaluation shows a reduction of communication latency by a factor 2x and of energy consumption by 33-40% compared to state-of-the-art approaches. This validates the suitability of TTW for wireless CPS applications and opens the way for implementation and real-world experience with industry partners.},
