I am looking for someone to help me develop a low cost mote. The mote must preferable be built from an IC (as purchased from an existing supplier such as Nordic Semiconductor's nRF24L01) as to reduce cost. We are looking at building our own custom mote that is in essence a mote IC on a pcboard with the following software requirements: 1. The path of the IP packets as it jumps from mote to mote must be logged. This data will be used later to determine the source mote, 2nd mote, 3rd mote etc. This is similar to a traceroute log in standard IP packact routing, only difference being that the motes are shown and not the router IPs. 2. Each mote must be identifyable via unique ID. (similar to a mac address) 3. The reach of the mote must be adjustable in range. i.e. the range can be changed from 100% to 10% of total range. Total range should be no less than 10m. Other than these three requirements the projects has no additional requirements. The main determinating factor is to get the cost of each mote as low as possible.
