Current Progress-Where Are We?

Hardware Making progress on finishing container

Mylar hungRelay wiring almost completeHeating element needs attached

Trying a terrarium heater (for reptile cages) to heat the interior of the system

Can’t use only the reservoir heater, too hot will kill roots

Heating SystemObtained an infared heater (Zoo Med

ReptiCare Ceramic Infrared Heat Emitter 60 Watts)

SoftwareWe are working on a few current issues

Wireless Module Transmit (data to website) working Receive (data from website) needs completed

Connecting a second Arduino Arduino to Arduino communication is partially

functional Format for data being sent for our application needs

to be defined and implemented
