Abstract
<jats:p>Ubiquitous computing (Ubicomp) is a strategy that proposes embedding computational activity in the environment to make computing invisible and ubiquitous, much like electricity. This chapter focuses on integrating wireless sensor networks (WSNs) with common devices, such as home appliances, medical devices, and industrial equipment, to enable them to communicate, process, and react autonomously. Through the use of WSNs, devices can gather and exchange real-time information, generating a better user experience and creating smart environments that can react to their surroundings. The study discusses various ways in which WSNs can be implemented in conventional devices, aiming to make them more efficient without compromising usability. One of the key contributions of this work is that it presents an improvement design for WSNs in terms of energy efficiency, security, and reliability, as required for Ubicomp mass deployment.</jats:p>
