Contents
Platform
- upload data to server via: http://digitalembassy.mesh/data/sensors/logData.php?basestation=3&type=dust&value=200.2324
Based on Raspberry Pi Pirate Box
- See Local_APs
- Possibly need Arduino Nano to link with dust? (AU$8.95)
Local connectivity
Have to get around AP redirection code:
For the moment: set up hidden SSID KandosData, add "scan_ssid=1" to /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf"
Frequency Research
different from 5Ghz
Enclosure
Battery dimensions: 165(W) x 172(D) x 130 (H)mm
- Large ABS IP66 Enclosure AU$30
- Better boxAU$60
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
- Run from Arduino Nano and breadboard at moment, with Python Serial comms. Working light on for main basestation.
- Cheaper dust: Optical Dust Sensor - GP2Y1010AU0F sparkfun guide element14 buyhookup information for arduino
- DHT11 or DHT22 for humidity and temp: arduino DHTxx library
Power
- SLA Deep-Cycle Gel Battery - 26Ah (AU$129)
- 100W solar panel (AU$125)
- 12V 8A Water Resistant PWM Solar Charge Controller (AU$49.95)
How will it fair? Solar calculator suggests okay.
Connection
- Someone suggested Ubiquiti range. Not sure what is required
Cost
~AU$524 + 19.90/month
