This live feed is a live montioring of a solar heat collector. It is achieved by using a circuit assembled by one of our community members, Mr. Kissman, and it monitors collectors that are installed on his house. It is a circuit comprised of an XBee radio connected to an Arduino board, then programmed using the code provided underneath the live feed.
