Nice work Jason, looks really well written up :clap:

Hi Jason, something I’ve been thinking of, what sensors do use and where did you source them?
Thanks

@ Robert24 - They’re all either GHI or Seeed Studio. I bought a spider dev kit and some were in that. The others I picked up over time. I’m in the UK so most came from either cool components or proto-pic

Some are now discontinued but you might be able to find them somewhere.

The weather station hardware came from spark fun

let me know how you get on.

I think I already have most of those parts. I’m also in the UK, if you are a Norwich City supporter you must close?

Not much of a footy guy. Rugby’s more my thing.

Good luck with your project. Keep me posted.

We are pleased to share an newly ider! :clap:

@ Jason thank you for using my uCloudy library in your project ! :wink:

Paolo.

Well done Jason … :clap: :clap:

Thanks for showcasing this today guys. The weather here in the UK sure means it’s getting a proper workout…

I can’t say for certain but I heard a rumor that Microsoft was asking for sample showcases and this might have gotten sent to them but again, at this time, that is only rumor and conjecture. ;D

@ Gary, thanks for sharing. If you are ever in a position to know for sure, I’d be interested in the feedback…

@ Jason - I will keep that in mind.

@ Jason - The first feedback that I have heard and I quote :

I think - They (Microsoft) don’t yet realize how many talented people and what they produce/are capable off, is in this community !!!

@ PiWi - Maybe they’re coming around to our way of thinking. If so this could be our time to shine…

@ PiWi - I’m not sure that’s the case. As with any business, you spend time and money on things that make money and as @ devhammer said in a different forum post, we just need to show that NETMF as part of the IoT world, can help drive revenue in other areas and products.

@ Jason - We are shining already, they must be bloody blind not to see it - 8)

Read the other topic again - and you’ll see my reply on that as well and that’s from the top level …

@ PiWi - I believe that was on the new netmf.com post in which @ Cuno just posted something interesting, https://www.ghielectronics.com/community/forum/topic?id=16847&page=3#msg167383. I will go back and reread what you had wrote.
