Solar SatTrack: Energy/Surveillance Final

Group Concept We want to construct an antenna that is powered by a Voltaic battery that recharges with solar energy. With this solar-powered antenna, we want to capture radio signals using a Raspberry Pi and Software Defined Radio (SDR) accessories/software and transmit them to a website we will design with art to visualize what is…

Solar Radio check-in

Accomplished this past week Implemented USB-C circuit that can read voltage level of Voltaic battery Discovered issue with Arduino timing out was not battery related but meant that we needed to pay $7 for Shiftr Linked Google Drive to Raspberry Pi via Google Cloud Console and Pi CLI –checked out a Pi from the shop…

Solar Radio, Week 2

What did we do: —Created rough flow charts for hardware and software architecture —Will successfully got the Arduino and Raspberry Pi talking via Serial Communication —Integrated the WifiNina library with Nano 33 IOT, learned through Tom Igoe and ITP resources —Learning MQTT – https://tigoe.github.io/mqtt-examples/ —Figuring out test server setup – maybe use https://www.shiftr.io/try/ —Have all ordered…
