Grain Monitor Project

The Grain Monitor project was in development from 1998 to 2002. The embedded software team used XP for the final 18 months of this project. We were building a mobile spectrometer, the first ever of its kind. The important thing (in my opinion at least) is that we solved all of the technical problems, and became a really smooth team. Our company stopped development due to business issues. The project might go forward again after being sold to another company.
