|---|---|
| Boards/lib/ | the library of common shapes |
| doc/hualian-sensors.xlsx | the project planning document - BOMs, pricing, planning information. |
| doc/hualian-garden.mm | the FreeMind mind-map used for planning the project. Very useful for reference. |
| Boards/pond-soil-proto/ | the generic Catena 4410, used as a base design for the other sensor nodes. Integrated lux/temperature/pressure/humidity; external I2C, Dallas Semi OneWire, and specialized two-wire interface. In the end, all hardware was identical and based on this. |
