  1. @iron_bug - If you have some land or other stuff you want to monitor, these LoRa devices make great sensor nodes.

    They have the open pins for you to solder in your own sensors, with support for a variety of weather and other devices.

  4. "“The first thing is to detect an event through sensors and share that information across borders,” he said. “If we can install sensors extensively in the mountains and receive information as soon as an event occurs, we can give people downstream enough time to move to safety.”

  5. "It can be hard to feel if clothes are damp in wintry conditions, because both cold and wet things activate our cold receptors.

    Likewise, in hot weather it’s much easier to tell when our skin or clothes are damp, as evaporation leads to both local cooling and a slight change in pressure on the skin."

  6. "By reading the light reflected off the skin, the fingertip generates maps of topology, strain, and contact pressure. The team has already used the sensor to generate maps of a human fingertip, a penny, and a leaf."

  7. Confession: I am a #Govee guy. Not so much the LED light strips (that's my son's domain).

    Me, I am a temperature sensor guy. I have them in my fridge and freezer to mitigate food spoilage, one in a watertight container in my pool skimmer, one in a far dark corner of my basement to turn the dehumidifier on and off. One in garage to make sure it isn't too cold in the winter, one in my bathroom to turn a small space heater on and off in the winter. One in my gazebo so I know the outdoor temperature. I have two in my mum's 1960s apartment to make sure she's staying cool in the evermore frequent heat waves (set those up a few weeks ago after she called to say she wasn't feeling so good and I rushed over to take her to emergency where she was treated for heat stroke and severe dehydration. Govee will make sure that I have advance warnings now - plus we bought an AC for her apartment).

    Yesterday I added one more sensor, their PM2.5 air quality sensor. It gets good reviews for accuracy (it uses the Cubic PM2008MS as its PM sensor) and is significantly cheaper than competitive products, at under $50 Canadian. This sensor is helpful because of the ever increasing number of wildfires and resultant smoke. While Environment Canada issues smoke warnings, smoke and associated air quality can be extremely local (think blobs of smoke that fall from upon high and roll through your neighbourhood). Having this sensor will warn me when AIQ is poor (it samples every 2 seconds and can trigger threshold alerts via the Govee app), and sadly, during smoke events, will also let me know when locally the AIQ is acceptable, giving confidence about when it is prudent to go indoors, and when it is okay to enjoy being outside.

    Next up, I guess I'll need another one for indoors. Then the smart switches can turn on the Corsi Rosenthal air filters.

    Welcome to the second quarter of the 21st century.

    "dispersed nature of #smartgrids, with thousands of interconnected devices like #smartmeters, #sensors, and distributed energy resources #DER's, creates a vast attack surface. For #substations, many operate #legacysystems (such as supervisory control and data acquisition #SCADA, which are essential for monitoring and control, and are prime targets."

  14. Getting ready for the upcoming semester's #IoT course here at #ITU -

    and doing some quick quiz with #DeepSeek , to see whether the new kid on the thieves' block would pass my exam.

    Result: it s about as useless as #ChatGPT. Many factual errors, #hallucinations on key questions of #physics, #sensors, #LoRa, LoRaWAN, general #wireless.
