For the past 6 weeks I have been a beta user of a new 6LoWPAN-based home energy pilot system from the UbiCity project called UBI-AMI (Ubiquitous Automatic Metering Infrastructure). I now have what is likely the world’s first 6LoWPAN controlled Christmas tree – turned on and off from a handy web interface. Nerdy, I know! This tops off lots of other useful things like controlling the car heater and fixing an energy guzzling freezer. More about UBI-AMI in 2010…
Merry Christmas to everyone!

Today I released our 6LoWPAN lecture slides on 6lowpan.net:
“The companion lecture slides for 6LoWPAN: The Wireless Embedded Internet have now been released on The Book page of 6lowpan.net. This first part of the book’s course material includes a suggested course syllabus, and 115 of lecture slides in both PowerPoint and PDF formats. This overview of the book is a good tool for lecturers, students and professionals alike. The slides have been released under a creative commons by-nc-sa license to encourage re-use. The companion exercise slides for Contiki are planned for release in the near future.”
