The Challenge has come to a close, and we'd like to congratulate the winners! See how they combined their technical prowess and love for the environment in their bee projects.
Unfortunately, my kits are currently held up at customs, and the cost to release them is almost as much as buying a new set. So, I have decided to purchase the MKRWAN 13310 continue with my project. While I await the arrival of the new equipment, I h...
In the last blog post, I successfully built a battery-operated LoRaWAN-connected environmental sensor that measures temperature, humidity, barometric pressure and light intensity via an Omron evaluation module in the MKR form factor. The sensor power...
Up to this point, I haven't had much luck properly identifying my ducks. Mostly my issues have come from random other things being classified as the objects I'm looking for. In my first attempt it was spotting unicorns everywhere, whic...
I thought I'd give machine vision and identification on the Nicla Vision another try, as last time things went terribly wrong, with unicorns everywhere!
This time I focused on just identifying rubber duckies, without confusing the model with the adde...
In the last blog, I was able to stabilise the LoRaWAN connectivity, so now it’s time to explore the issue of MKR WAN 1310 power consumption, improving the sleep power consumption, how modem state saves could be implemented, integrating some env...
Today was the second day of sunny weather with temperatures getting into the mid 60s (F) in my area south of Portland. This is about 10 degrees above normal for March.
My wife and I were out walking our younger granddog when we encountered a su...
We were not able to achieve a connection in my last blog and the reason seemed very likely due to the fact that there are no gateways nearby that can hear the signal and establish a two-way communication with my MKR WAN 1310. To remedy this, some spe...
Introduction
The is my very first blog for "Save The Bees Design Challenge". Thanks to Element14 for choosing me one of the challengers for the contest. For the last two months I read several research paper about bees. From my study I realized that o...
After my failed attempts at trying to make a LoraWan connection to The Things Network, I thought I'd trying failing at something new next
So I pulled out the Nicla Vision board and decided to give it a try!
The Nicla Vision board is made by Ar...
