    I'm working on a cross-reality project that collects data from a
    wireless sensor network (running the TinyOS environment) &
    presents it to an opensim server such that the data may affect the
    state of the simulation (e.g. a light turning on in the real world
    is detected by a sensor & causes a light in the simulation to also
    turn on).

    Can anybody link me to any information on what available
    interfaces there are for presenting the sensor data to opensim?
    I've been googling but can't seem to come up with a suitable
    search string to return what I'm actually looking for! I presume
    there must be several opensim interfaces in a few different languages?


Not sure if this would help but my student has recently updated osFunctions to to retrieve and output UDP port information. Our purpose was to drive a continuous simulation from the outside and have real-time geometry/visual feedback in OpenSim.

The problem we are currently having now is not so much getting data into OpenSim in real time but figuring out the new region module API for geometry - I think it might have changed since when the HelloWorld region module was originally created. We are thinking of this region module approach, rather than LSL, due to speed issues that we've
encountered with using LSL for an outside interface.

I think your project requires similar functionality to ours. There are two issues:

 1) rapid I/O to/from OpenSim
 2) ability to process I/O data within OpenSim from (1)
