Molenet: A Milestone for the Test Field in Bremen

Molenet reaches the next milestone! The first sensors have been buried in the test field at the University of Bremen and are now collecting important data on soil moisture, conductivity, and temperature. This data will now form the basis for many subsequent experiments.

We're excited to announce a major step for our Molenet project: The first sensors have been successfully buried in our new test field at the University of Bremen. These sensors will provide us with valuable data on soil moisture, conductivity, and temperature. This data will then be used for further development and for student projects.

The Molenet project is led by the Sustainable Communication Networks Group (ComNets) at the University of Bremen. Our goal is to create innovative solutions for networked environmental monitoring. With the data now being collected, we can optimize our underground sensor networks in terms of lifespan, cost, sensor techniques, and much more.

For more information about the project, please visit our homepage: molenet.org or directly at comnets.uni-bremen.de.

A hole has been dug in the lawn. You can see a soil moisture sensor, a few empty conduits, some cables, etc. In the next step, the sensor will be placed in the hole.
