Got Sensors? We do!

One of the many resources available to us as a Lemelson-MIT InvenTeam is the support of various corporations in fields related to what we are doing.

Vernier Software & Technology is one of those companies generous enough to not only talk to us personally about what we are doing but also donate a few sensors to us. After talking personally to the president of the company, David Vernier himself, he offered to send us a few sensors to use as well as gave us a little guidance as to how to go about identifying future sensors to purchase. Since we are going to be taking measurements direct from the soil and not from an aqueous solution the number of sensors available to us is limited and Mr. Vernier pointed us in the right direction.

Mr. Vernier, if you are reading this, thank you so much for your help.
