In the last Blogs, I have already mentioned somewhat details of what I am going to do for this 1m3Pi Challange,I loved working on the MQTT protocol. There are two BME280 sensors that are sending data with ESPs. For the debugging purpose, I wante...
The whole Mushrooms' Paradise blog
I will have roughly half of the components controlled by the RPI and half by the ESP32. RPI components are controlling mushrooms part of the farm, ESP32 - vegetable part.
This entry is about the components co...
WELL It worked! Here's some video demos. This is the one with the full op. version, infinitely on:players.brightcove.net/.../index.html (I originally did CDN but ralph said that was a download and since I accidentally clicked...
Welllll Relays are very interesting. I'm setting up one right now, with an arduino uno. I've set the setting for 1 second of high-stream water dispense, per every 6 hours. Here's the code. int RelayPin = 12;
void setup() {...
Design Features:This is a modular and scalable design. More water tanks can be added at any time and a single or more water tank can be removed easily from the system for harvesting the required amount of algae at a time. Valves at the end of each wa...
