Hello,
I inaugurate the new forum to explain you my project.
I make a regulator for artificial anthill
Exotic ants need specific climate, the regulator must regulate it. It could by used for reptile too
For a anthill I need :
- 1 or 2 temperature/humidity sensor (depending of the size of the anthill), for example 1 for the nest and 1 for the hunting area
- A fog generator, a heater and a fan
Hardware :
- Raspberry pi zero wh
- bme280 sensor for humidity and temperature
- 3 bluetooth smart plug to control fog, heater and fan
- An OLED screen
Software :
- Acquire and store data from sensor in mysql database
- Display actual data and consult historical data/alert with a small chart with LittlevGL
- May be a small web server to consult data
- Control bluetooth smart plug to regule the climate
- Have a database for different species to quickly install a new anthill (pre-configuration)
- Send alert (mail/sms) if the regulator detect a problem and can’t regulate the climate
It is a small project, but I have some work because I have little experience in embedded dev.
Thanks for your attention
Have fun
