The document describes the X-Wi v1.0 wireless data acquisition system. The system uses a SimpliciTI RF module that operates in the 2.4GHz band and supports various modulation schemes. It has a 16 MIPS microcontroller and five low-power modes. The base system uses a Xilinx Spartan-3A FPGA, four capacitive touch switches, and a 32-bit Microblaze processor. The document discusses the creators' experience with Xilinx tools including System Generator, ISE, and EDK. It also covers embedded system prototyping including FPGA and hardware design, software development, and IP creation.
