Vineyard Sensorization (2021)

 

During the beginning of the second year, a very interesting project was offered, in my opinion, since it involved learning about sensors, electronics and the use of real materials. This project is based on the sensorization of a crop (a vineyard to be more specific) in order to measure the potential of the soil, its temperature and the humidity and temperature of the air.

 

 

However, this is still a work in progress so I won't be uploading any downloadable content. Despite this, I find it interesting to highlight the use of ESP32 as a low-cost microcontroller:

 

We consider it a great option since it has LoRa communication, MicroSD storage and a basic LCD screen (in addition to the typical functions of these microcontrollers).

In conclusion, to say that this project effectively helped me learn about sensor electronics and some materials for use. In addition, I propose the idea of ​​obtaining sensor data, translating it into an image and making use of artificial intelligence to predict weather conditions in the area of ​​that crop.
