The advent of Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWAN) has improved the feasibility of wireless sensor networks for environmental sensing across wide areas. We have built EnviSense, an ultra-low power environmental sensing system, and deployed over a dozen ...

This paper explores the power delivery potential of soil-based microbial fuel cells. We build a prototype energy harvesting setup for a soil microbial fuel cell, measure the amount of power that we can harvest, and use that energy to drive an e-ink ...

Plant sensing plays an important role in today's smart agriculture and intelligent forestry. However, existing plant sensing work based on wireless IoT mostly focuses on the environment that plants live like soil moisture and temperature of a greenhouse ...

Technologies for environmental and agricultural monitoring are on the rise, however there is a lack of small, low-power, and low-cost sensing devices in the industry. One of these monitoring tools is a soil moisture sensor. Soil moisture has significant ...
