WindClock-III

A full description of how to make and install your own WindClock-III will be provided here in time.

Current prototype development state:

installed a raspberry pi 3 with a sensehat

python coded all data for realtime request available in a file

installed localtunnel software for communication but it is dropping out (bug)

so managed to install a couple of working online transfers with the new websockets/html5 protocols

OH-NO! by upgrading to Python 3.5, the sensehat modules are not found, and have to reconfigure it all

Future work:

then: adding a waterproof temperature and ambient light sensor by extending the sensehat header pins

power: 5V-2A for the pi seems too much, so would use a Teensy with 3.3V 500mA (windclock-iv)

designing a shape/case for hanging it up and responsive to wind (physical calibration)

simple visualisation/sonification on the object

work with more than one (but keep it under 10 haha)

client-side for data capture (katastrof interpretation and sonification)

Make and install the real objects

rodchenko examples (see below)

I would just cut out a spiral out of a thin wooden plate and stretch from the middle up

gert's suggestions for design

More details and progress the coming weeks...
