How a North Dakota Farmer Built an IoT-Driven Farm – Hacker Noon

Bin-Level Device Requirements

For this IoT project, Greg had some goals he set out to accomplish:

1. Build a weather-resilient device that could function in both moist and dusty environments.
2. Find affordable hardware components so he could create multiple devices that could go in different bins (and possibly sell to other farmers).
3. Create an end-to-end device that could connect to the cloud and communicate with other devices.
4. Be accessible and easy to use for combine drivers and truckers.
