Technology Category	Functional Applications - Remote Monitoring & Control Systems Networks & Connectivity - Cellular Other - Battery Sensors - Camera / Video Systems Sensors - Environmental Sensors Sensors - Flow Meters
Applicable Industries	Agriculture
Applicable Functions	Business Operation
Use Cases	Livestock Monitoring
Challenge	The possibilities of the Internet of Things are endless and nothing demonstrates this better than one of FW’s most unique projects – a solar-powered camera solution for monitoring fish. Fish researchers worked with FW to integrate a camera system into the customer’s existing equipment installed at the end of a pile dike along the Columbia River. The camera system provides a live video feed of the fish detection array (mounted below the water surface) and surrounding water and weather conditions. Read More
