Solar powered observation nesting box network
-
As the title said, i'm currently building/build a set of solar powered nesting box nodes, to observe the inner of said boxes. (By Picture)
The Gateway (a RPi) is also solar powered and connected with a UMTS stick to the internet.I'm currently writing a series of blog-post of this MySensors powered project.

Great work! I love to read details and explanations. It helps beginners and stimulate people to start to do electronics and arduino/MySensors projects.

Thanks. I'm also still a beginner in electronics and try to fit as many infos as possible into the posts.
If some question arise i'm happy to answer them, or expand the posts about them.I need probably 3-4 more posts to cover the whole project.
PS: Some not so obvious credits, as i seem to forgot them:
The connected nesting box project has the target to observe the endangered boreal owl in the free wild and is initiated by the NaBu Siegen-Wittgenstein Germany (NaBu = Naturschutz Bund =~ nature conservancy organisation). It is also partially fund supported by the Umweltministerium NRW (Ministry of environment NRW, Germany).I probably need to compile a bigger lists of credits ^^

Really fascinating stuff. Might have to look into this in the future sometime for my backyard.

@hek thanks!
I'm really happy with this article and this is great but i also hoped for a little more constructive criticism on the project.
