Each of the RL78 sensor units have multiple sensors in them and simulate a room in the house. The sensor GUI application simulates the central control panel. Each of the sensor units communicates with the central control unit through Wi-Fi. The sensor modules have a RL78 low power MCU that talks to the various sensors and collects the sensor data. The sensor data is sent to the Wi-Fi module that sends it to the central control panel. The Wi-Fi module in the sensor unit is a Connect-i-on module from Redpine Signals.
