This paper presents on image transmission based on wireless sensor networks in a multi-barrier environment.The traditional wired technology is usually adopted for image transmission.With its fast development,the wireless communication technology is also used for image transmission.However,this elementary wireless transmission technology is used only for point-to-point transmission,and has a high requirement for hardware devices and thus is rather expensive.With maturity of this technology and for its features of Ad Hoc network,low hardware requirement and low cost the wireless sensor network is used to transmit images.The image transmission system proposed in this paper,first uses the camera for image capture,and then transimits the captured image,and finally receives the image by the gateway and the computer terminals.The experimental results show that the system is simple in networking and requires no special equipment,and could realize the image transmission in advese environment(such as an underground mine).
