Attended: Kaeo, Tyrin, Tryston, and Kenny

• We are the only group currently using the Arduino
• The red thing is a boost converter that boosts 3.7V to 5V
• Xbee runs at 3.3V (There is a separate regulator to convert that)
• There is a mystery humidity sensor
• There's 2 humidity sensors. One is on the pressure sensor, but they work differently.
• Andy was mistaken about the power?
• It's not the power circuit. It's the fact that the system itself pulls too much juice.
• Battery fully charges around midday.
• The panel never directly powers the circuit. It only powers the charging circuit to charge the battery.
• Pressure and current sensor is connected to the I2C.
• GPS is used for having a lot of weather boxes set up, and you can tell which one/where the one we need is(Buoy Example
• “Drop a box, can find it in a sea of other boxes”
• Kenny is gonna make a core program for us to play around with the hardware

pressure and current sensor is connected to the i2c, GPS is used for having a lot of weather boxes set up, you can tell which one/where the one we need The buoy example “Drop a box, can find it in a sea of other boxes” Kenny is gonna make a core program for us to play around with the hardware we have, something to test out By the end of the week, well have a program for the arduino that can access all the different sensors and see if they work Start talking to the other teams for advice about the troubles that we are having “Hey, were confused about this. Help?” Takes care of the overlap Kennys always willing to help Edit Block diagram

Power side and signal side “if it gets too crowded, split it up” -Kenny one for power, one for signal
