Space Measurement Ideas

[RonaldThomas]

I've created the list below as a quick braindump of all the things we might want to measure at TinkerMill. For many of the items below, the ability to record or alarm events triggered by state changes would be hugely helpful.

• Temperature
• Humidity
• Motion
• Light Level
• Light Switch Status
• Doors and Gate
  • Gate Open Status
  • Door Lock Status
  • Door Open Status
• Mains Power Monitoring
  • Voltage
  • Current Draw
  • By Facility
  • By Panel
  • By Circuit
  • By Outlet
  • By Tool
• Natural Gas
  • Valve Status
• Gas Cylinders
  • Cylinder Identification
  • Weight
  • Valve Status -Shop Air
  • Current Pressure
  • Compressor Power Status
  • Valve Status
  • Compressor Duty Cycle
• Occupancy
  • Count of Members Present
  • Count of Visitors Present
  • Identification of Members Present

Awesome!

So we can start hitting the system with some data, Steve and I want to start building some of the sensors so we can really test the model and software out.

Here are the spaces we are thinking about. Please add any additional ones.

Do we want to add any measurement for the outdoors? We have a nearly complete Sparkfun Photon weather system (https://www.sparkfun.com/products/13674) that just needs to be finished and installed.

There are three additional rooms in the modular building we might consider:

• Recording studio
• Middle room
• Pick and place room

Yes, we will include the outdoors measurements as well, and, as per our conversation, push the weather data at Weather Underground. Thanks for mentioning that.
