Wireless Wine Monitoring

Wynken de Word writes "An article in Canada's Globe and Mail says 'vineyard owner Don King is coaxing 30,000 plants to grow grapes of exactly the right colour, size and sweetness to produce great ice wine and other fine vintages...with the help of judicious watering, a knowledge of the age-old art of viniculture -- and electronic sensing devices linked together in a wireless network.' Using an Intel-based TinyOS and TinyDB, multiple sensing devices monitor grape micro climates and help determine irrigation and frost patterns."

We notice acts like throwing out Fench dressing, but mainly think those who would do such things are brainless slugs who are unable to think or follow logic, much less remember even recent history, and thus have the Fox News Channel form all of their opinions for them.

Wireless Line.. oh,

Let me know when slashdot is done catering to you horde of techno-yuppies on the hill growing your silicon regulated grapes, and gets back to posting articles about information technology.
