Develop "Tablet Node" Mode #10

Closed roshanr10 closed 6 years ago

roshanr10 commented 6 years ago

We should have the option to setup an additional Pi dedicated for more tablets since a single Pi can only handle up to 6 tablets (that has been tested). Having up to 12 tablets will allow for redundant data entry.

The tablet node should be able tether to the Pi and connect to the existing web hook service.

Closing this as we could develop the architecture like this from the get go, as I briefly mentioned in #16.

We could have the central server(web hook) be separate from the data input server(s) (laptop GUI/tablets) and just sync when possible. This would work for both more tablets and multiple Pis in different parts of the field.

That said, only one Pi should have the central designation and be used for data analysis.
