A smart aeroponic farm (4 s mist, 5 min rest, DHT and ultrasonic sensors, relays, LCD, app-based remote control and low-water alerts); a low-cost fire alert where a DHT22 threshold triggers an alarm and a Telegram message with location and time; an Ethernet web server driving a timed relay; SIM800 SMS and call experiments; a MikroTik hAP lite repurposed into a VPN gateway; a cloud-hosted VoIP PBX for the JOAT office.
Sensors, boards, firmware and the cloud dashboard from one person, which is what lets a Kenyan SME prototype hardware without a lab.
