Hey everybody, thanks for the support. Omni, your setup looks quite professional and well organized, I actually plan on bring back the touchscreen interface soon now that the web interface is coming along quite nicely. I've made a few changes on the Raspberry Pi to keep the wireless connection...

I'm making a control interface for the computer at www.yieldbuddy.com it's opensource and you can add your own sensors. Right now I'm just working to make it easier.

Wow, I wasn't expecting this. Congrats on getting the code up and running, that looks pretty professional. This is the touchscreen function to get x and y values: and under void setup() there's this: ^^^ See how I had to change myTouch.InitTouch to PORTRAIT instead of LANDSCAPE -->...

Thank you.

I think I recall adding in a negative sign to make it opposite (the correct way) for my screen. If you fish around the envirocontrol code you'll find there's a function that gets the x/y coordinates of the touch and runs the raw values through a formula to convert to pixels. I may add a...

I actually don't use the touch screen any more - just the web interface. But if you're interested in the touch screen, the old 'envirocontrol' version of this project uses the touch screen but is no where near as complete as the newest version. But atleast you can reference from that. The...

Thanks, it's been a journey. lol I might fire up a kickstarter in the future. This last version was a big leap (version 1.15b). It's getting easier and easier to setup as we go. With the SD image you can having a working setup on your pi in as long as it takes you to copy the image over to...

Thanks, wanted to let you guys know about the forum on the website as well - it's on yieldbuddy.com

HUGE release, LOTS of changes. Everything is logged to an SQL database now and the graphs are working along with setpoints. Now called, "yieldbuddy" v1.15 out Edit: I will be posting the SD image soon on the project's new site: 'www.yieldbuddy.com'

As posted on another thread (just to keep everybody updated): I'm glad to see there's still some interest of a DIY nature. I've got some stuff to do this week, but when the weekend rolls around I should find myself with some time to post my updated code.. It's been updated awhile now, just...

I'm glad to see there's still some interest of a DIY nature. I've got some stuff to do this week, but when the weekend rolls around I should find myself with some time to post my updated code.. It's been updated awhile now, just never posted due to problems with my SD card for my Raspberry Pi...

Same... I really want to see this pics - sounds good :)

Sonic is definatily the way to go... You might need a small pipe close and around the sensor, or a pipe around the sensor, and dipping into the water a bit with holes drilled on the side (to make sure the level in the pipe and the level in the reservoir are the same) EDIT: Or else you use a...

Hey, thanks Afistakis. I've added a streaming webcam to the site and fixed up some minor issues and fixed up the python script a bit, but wanted to get my sensor/setpoints 100% before releasing it. But that was 2 weeks back?... Harvested this past weekend too :D

Thanks guys... Somebody posted about selling their junk on here; I see the post is gone now. Probably slapped everybody's else's code together and is just trying to sell their junk. Beware and don't get ripped off. :)

Hey guys - been super busy... I should have an update soon and a schematic soon as well.

lol, No problem! It's in the wiki on the download page. (http://sourceforge.net/p/envirocontrol/wiki/Parts%20List%2016%3A1%3A15%2010-12-2012/) Keep in mind that I'm planning on scrapping my touchscreen interface... The web interface is coming along nicely :)

I have since took the LCD out of the project, and am focusing on web-based control right now. I have also added a camera to the page and that is working now too. The code is much easier to understand now. The EEPROM is only used incase of power outtage. You will only see those values...

I have a DS1307 attached to the arduino that sends the time to the raspberry pi through serial. This would be a nice distro for attaching everything directly to the Pi, but I want the arduino to take care of everything because if the power goes off, it'll boot back up in about 2 seconds and...

I've just been using the USB port right now, but I have a 5V to 3.3V Logic Converter that I'll be wiring up too so I don't have to use the big USB cable. I'd have to look at the Rasp Pi pinout, etc, etc. But I plan on doing this soon - I'll let you know when this happens - almost done my new...
