Abstract
Sensors return information gained from physical interaction with their environment. To aid physical interaction, it is useful for sensors to be in close physical proximity with the objects observed. To observe actions occurring over a large region adequately, multiple sensors may be necessary. Battery- powered devices with wireless communications are advisable. It is also prudent to provide the devices with local intelligence.
