About This workshop
This hands-on workshop dives into the practical application of Internet of Things (IoT) sensors and Artificial Intelligence (AI) for revolutionizing urban farming. Participants will learn to set up environmental monitoring systems, collect data on soil moisture, light, and temperature, and leverage AI algorithms for predictive analytics to optimize plant growth and irrigation schedules. We will cover sensor integration, micro-controller programming with platforms like ESP32, data visualization techniques, and an introduction to machine learning models for crop health. Attendees will leave with a foundational understanding and practical skills to create their own efficient, automated urban grow systems, contributing to local food security and sustainable living within city limits.
