Water stress can be a great hindrance to crop health, and many farmers would like to turn to technology to better track water stress in their farms. However, the current solutions on the market are very expensive, and not all farmers can afford them. The goals of this project are to fabricate a smart camera and develop a monitoring system that has cellular connection, is reliable, scalable and modular. By having this system, farmers from a wide variety of geographic and economic backgrounds will be able to effectively monitor water stress in their farms at a relatively low cost. In addition, adding and removing cameras from the system will be easier. |
