platform_template
This is a template repository for describing a platform (like a boat, car, farm or house/apartment) for a sensor-y technical project
About the platform
This is the HMT Template. A generic vessel capable of navigating the seas, fields, roads, cities and suburbs.
Parts
This template uses ESP-32s and sensors to monitor and trigger on all aspects of boat life.
Processing and communication
Several ESP32s that uses SMS and LoRaWAN to forward information.
UI
4 inch TFT resistive touch screen
Data collection
We all like data right? Well here it comes.
I2c
- CO2/Humidity/Temperature
- Proximity
CANbus/SeatalkNG
- NMEA2000 converter
RS-232
- Ultrasonic level meters (black/potable water)
Resistor
- Lever level fuel meter
- Thermistor
Safety/security
These sensors are in a separate section, as they are not merely data collectors, but with little processing triggers of high priority messaging, waking up more central devices and need to operate continuously, with far lower energy consumption.
I2c
- IR movement sensor
- Gas/fire sensor
SPI
- EM proximity sensor
GPIO
- Fluid level sensor
