11.1 Introduction
is chapter provides an introduction to wireless multimedia sensor network (WMSN). We introduce the
WMSN technology by discussing the WMSN architecture and WMSN hardware. WMSN architecture
outlines the dierent network congurations that can be deployed when setting up a WMSN like single-tier
at, single-tier clustered, and multitiered architecture. e next section on WMSN hardware (Section 11.4)
covers the wireless motes that are used in deploying the WMSN itself, which include low-resolution motes,
