| + | ====== What we learned ====== | ||
| + | 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 reg that converts that\\ | ||
| + | There is a mystery humidity sensor\\ | ||
| + | there's 2 humidity sensors one on the pressure sensor but they work differently\\ | ||
| + | Andy was mistaken about the power\\ | ||
| + | its not the power circuit, its the fact that the system itself pulls too much juice\\ | ||
| + | Battery fully charges around midday\\ | ||
| + | the panel never directly powers the circuit only powering 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, 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\\ | ||
