  3. Water pipelines are everywhere people live

  4. Pipelines carry important resources (gas, oil…etc.)

  5. Pipelines carry very important resources (beer pipeline!)

  6. Pipeline monitoring is essential • Motivation leaking leaking

  7. Water contamination (Boston, 2010)

  8. Difficult sensor deployment

  9. WSN challenges (Deployment and maintenance) • Deployment challenges • Difficult to access pipelines to place sensors (often hidden inside walls or underground) • May need to break pipes to install sensors inside • Maintenance challenge • Difficult to replace out-of-battery sensors • Real pipeline environment • Difficult to ensure network connectivity during sensor placement and replacement

  10. Research question • Can we automate WSN sensor placement and replacement in pipeline? • While minimize the number of sensor nodes • Good sensing and networking coverage • Reduce the human effort bottleneck for long-term, large-scale WSN deployment & maintenance.

  11. Single-Release Point the enabling concept Single-release point Place sensors at a single release point Sensors automatically place themselves in the pipes

  12. How to realize single-release point? • Sensor placement • Mobile sensors • Sensor latch mechanism • Sensor placement algorithm • Sensor localization • Sensor replacement • Sensor replacement algorithm

  15. TriopusNetautomate WSN deployment in pipeline • Sensor placement • Mobile sensors • Sensor latch mechanism • Sensor placement algorithm • Sensor localization • Sensor replacement • Sensor replacement algorithm

  16. Mobile sensor (components) Sensor mote Actuator pull/push a mechanical arm Localization sensors (SenSys’ 10) water pressure + gyro

  17. Mobile sensor (kmote) • A Telosb-like platform, TinyOS compatible • Smaller form-factor, only CPU board is needed + = Kmote CPU board USB board (program uploading) (data processing)

  18. Mobile sensor (latch & delatch mechanism) Linear actuator, off-the-shelf from market A motor with gear inside to control the arm Spec: • Stroke: 2cm • Weight: 15gram • Arm extending speed: 2cm/sec 2cm 1cm 0cm

  19. Prototype #1 (8cm diameter)

  20. Prototype #2 (one motor, three arms)

  21. Prototype #2 (6cm diameter)

  22. Sensor placement algorithm • Where are the optimal locations to place sensors in pipes (after releasing them from the single-release point)? • Networking coverage • Interconnectivity among all nodes • Sensing coverage • Each pipe segment has at least one sensor • Minimize # of sensor nodes for deployment
