NodeRed node for canfix ? #53

Open jmg22 opened 5 years ago

jmg22 commented 5 years ago

I think it's maybe a good tool to create for data manipulation with sensor. like (ex: i have 3 bmp085 and node red compare data from this sensor and use data from one make better sense or create average from this 3 sensor...) and many more possibility (automatization ...).

Nodered https://nodered.org

I think this node are a good start https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-node-serialport

Sorry for my english. My 2 cent ...

That's an interesting idea. What do you see the use case being?

jmg22 commented 5 years ago

the ability to interact with other nodes like homekit (receive notifications on your apple watch in flight). The ability to send push data to a server emoncms (usually used to monitor energy but can easily be used for temperature or other). Possibilities are almost infinite

I imagine a gadget made with a Raspberry Pi zero wifi connected on a canfix hub. with only nodered and Emoncms or other, used to create a wifi network in the cockpit. it would be a possible option for those who wish to monitor their data and sent notifications on the malfunction of some sensors or other.

there may be possible uses also for flight simulators

obviously I throw ideas, a kind brainstorming, it may not be all good to take.

i like it. I guess for it to be really useful we'd write a node that could talk to FIXGateway using netfix and then folks could do what they want with the information after that?

yes !! this will be a great start point
