IDF: Intel demonstrates largest ad-hoc network
News For example, thousands of tiny network nodes -- called "motes" -- could be outfitted with simple heat sensors and dropped over a forest-fire area. Such "motes" could also be used to map the ocean floor or to locate people lost in remote locations.
