Networked Environmental Sensors

Principal Investigator Richard Fletcher


Dr. Fletcher creates low-cost sensors for monitoring the environment (air, soil, water). Some of my first projects included weather probes for Mt. Everest and soil sensors for poor farmers in central america. Depending on the focus of the project, we sometimes use environmental data for geophysical reseasch, farmer livelihood, health (e.g. asthma), or education.
