Smart buoy
It floats, runs on sunlight and logs water quality on a schedule. Every record stays on board; where the site has Wi-Fi it uploads by itself, where it does not it waits for you to come close.
- Measures
- Water temperature, turbidity, dissolved oxygen and more; probes can be swapped
- Power
- Solar panel and battery, no cables, no battery swaps
- Storage
- Every record on board; when full, only the oldest are overwritten
- Data out
- Uploads over site Wi-Fi, or straight to the app from a phone nearby
