1 Dell Precision 690 2x Intel Xeon CPU E5320 @ 1.86GHz with 8GB RAM. This machine acts as our main server used for the website, storage and running simulations.
4 Dell Precision 390 Core2 6300 @ 1.86GHz with 2GB RAM.
1 Dell Precision 490 Xeon 5120 @ 1.86 GHz with 2GB RAM.
2 Dell Optiplex 755 Core2 E8200 @ 2.66GHz with 2GB RAM.

We have a collection of 12 Intel Xeon E7520 "Sossaman" platforms.
We have a collection of handheld devices:

13 Android Dev Phone 1 devices, donated by Google, which currently are used for teaching.
8 PDAs, which are used in a health-monitoring testbed currently under development.

We use Berkeley motes for developing applications that make use of wireless sensor networks. For this purpose we have

6 programming boards (2 MIB500 and 4 MIB510)
11 sensor boards
41 Motes
5 mica2dot
6 iMotes donated by Intel.
and a ACTIVEHOME X10 kit that we use in applications that reduce user distraction.

Other sensors that we use in our research work
