Contents
Platform
Based on Raspberry Pi Pirate Box
- See Local_APs
- Possibly need Arduino Nano to link with dust? (AU$8.95)
Frequency Research
different from 5Ghz
Enclosure
- Large ABS IP66 Enclosure AU$30
Indicator
- 12v safety light to be visible in Kandos: this?
Sensors
- Webcam 1080p night vision for pi (AU$37.90)
camera info, low-level interfacing
- Air Quality (AU$29.89): using dust detector, based on DustDuino 2 example, usage discussion and code, table of air particle sizes, discussion of ppd42 and ppd60, Cheaper PPD42NJ
- Cheaper dust: Optical Dust Sensor - GP2Y1010AU0F sparkfun guide element14 buy
Power
- possible deep-cycle battery (12v 12AH) (AU$58.52)
- Better SLA Deep-Cycle Gel Battery - 26Ah (AU$129)
- 100W solar panel (AU$125) 200W ebay
- 12V 8A Water Resistant PWM Solar Charge Controller (AU$49.95)
Connection
- Someone suggested Ubiquiti range. Not sure what is required
- Or cheap directional WiFi from dx.com (AU$32.05 x 2) If it is supported by Pi linux?
* Or use a Huawei 3G modem (e.g. from Optus) setting up Pi with 3G USB modem , with a cheap Amaysim account (AU$40 + AU$19.90/month)
For ZTE ("telstra") dongle
- Configure on windows machine
- add
auto eth1
iface eth0 inet to /etc/network/interfaces file
Cost
~AU$524 + 19.90/month
