Which disaster risk or issue are you addressing?

I run the Free Appropriate Sustainability Technology (FAST) Research Group at Western - https://www.appropedia.org/Category:FAST

We are most interested in using the device to help with food resilience in disaster situations in isolated communities in Canada, but our work like yours is applicable everywhere. I wrote a book on the subject - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feeding_Everyone_No_Matter_What
We would test it on the university farm in London, Ontario...and can help validate functions with out other suite of open source sensors. https://www.appropedia.org/Western_Innovation_for_Renewable_Energy_(WIRED)

We are most interested in proving it out for deploying it for wildfires...as most of Canada was on fire this year -- but are interested in all disasters. On the smoke issue we may be able to collaborate on using the system for haze analysis with CV that not only is useful for warning of human health issues but also predicting agricultural output and solar energy yield - see our recent article here: https://www.appropedia.org/A_Review_of_the_Effects_of_Haze_on_Solar_Photovoltaic_Performance

Hello,

Thank you for sharing your impressive proposal! After careful consideration, we've decided to proceed further.

We have also added a few additional requirements and you may choose whether to agree to the following terms and conditions.

Project Showcase

• One (1) Hackster Post or Github Post
• A video demonstrating a working demo
• Two to three (2-3) images documenting the setup and operation

Guarantee fee

Due to customs and postage issues, we have to add a guarantee fee and shipping cost.

• Guarantee fee : To protect against potential equipment damage, we require a deposit fee that will vary based on the equipment needed. This deposit is fully refundable upon the return of the product.
• Shipping Costs: You will be responsible for covering the international shipping costs.

Welcome your reply, we look forward to collaborating with you on this project.

Feel free to ping me by replying here or on Linkedin.

It will be weeks of paperwork to deal with those fees. If this is shipped in the US do these two fees disappear? If so, we can do that and I can drive it across the border. Thank you, Joshua M. Pearce, Ph.D. John M.
