Unlock Agriculture: Explore Sensor Technology for Beginners

Tuesday, December 2nd, 5:30 - 7:30pm (Dinner included)

Wyoming County Ag & Business Center

36 Center Street, Warsaw, Learning Center Room 1

Led by Dr. Jonathan Jaramillo, who has a PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Cornell University. Dr. Jarmillo and Cornell interns will bring expertise in robotics and computer systems to Wyoming County with a focus on developing lowcost, accessible tools for growers and pre-commercial tinkerers. This interactive session will guide participants through building a low-cost irrigation pump system for vegetable/berry production applications. The program includes an introduction to soil moisture sensor
technology and microcontroller-based automation, followed by a 45-minute guided build. As part of the CCE Wyoming County strategic plan, it is anticipated that future workshops will explore additional sensor technologies in agriculture. Do you have a topic suggestion—like boluses in dairy cattle or barn temperature sensors? Email us at wyomingaginfo@cornell.edu.
