Using the FarmBeats Student Kit to learn more about IoT, Digital Agriculture and Precision Farming
FarmBeats is a venture of Microsoft Research that was launched in 2015 as a prototype for an Internet of Things (IoT) platform for agriculture. Stemming from the concept of Digital Agriculture, it uses technologies such as low-cost sensors, drones, vision, white space, cloud computing and Machine Learning algorithms to combat very little or no-power in farms. Consequently, the FarmBeats platform has not only allowed for real-time seamless data collection from sensors, cameras and drones but also for storage and complex processing within Microsoft’s cloud computing platform, known as Microsoft Azure.Learning more about the Microsoft Data Science Virtual Machine 4th April 6pm–7pm
