Fresno State industrial technology student Senal Devasurendra and UC Santa Barbara doctoral student Nevena Golubovic create an automated communications center to upload smart farm data from a Fresno State almond orchard to the cloud as part of its CyberSEES Smart Farm collaborative research project. They connected and networked the in-ground field sensors to data acquisition smart boards, data receivers, a computer and router, antennae and mobile hot spot hardware that interface with data cloud storage and analysis software. The research is part of the National Science Foundation-funded collaborative effort with Fresno State, UC Santa Barbara and Cal Poly faculty and students, also led by Fresno State Industrial Technology faculty.
