We are approaching the final testing deadline (February 1st).
As of today (01/22/14), the current state of the software in Project Curacao is as follows:
– Arduino Battery Watchdog:
- Control of the wind turbine (selection between solar and turbine). Currently this is manual (through the RasPiConnect Pi Power Subsystem Page)
 |
| RasPiConnect Screen modified for Wind/Solar Selection |
– Project Curacao Pi main program: The main program is generating all the graphs, camera pictures, environment sensing as required. It is also regulating the Fan automatically now. Reading log files from the Arduino Watchdog. Next things to be implemented:
- Improving sensor error detection (Vastly improved, but still needs more)
- Final Wind Turbine added to the battery Charging system and reporting
– RasPiConnect: We have a few more graphs and dials and buttons to implement on the RasPiConnect software, but it’s pretty close to final. We use this all the time now to monitor what is going on in the project remotely.
Here’s the newest main screen (1 of 6 at this point):
