Who are we?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

We are Hydroplant Subsystems, and we welcome you to our very first blog post. Our goal in this project is to develop several subsystems for Hydroplant, including both new subsystems and improvements\/changes to existing ones. More on Hydroplant: Hydroplant<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Workflow – Github<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

In each repository, this workflow will used during the development. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The following tasks will be automated by GitHub Actions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Documentation (doxygen)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Formatting<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Preferably compiling C++ code also<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Code standards<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    Will use VSC (Visual Studio Code) as IDE with the default GIT extension. For C++-specific parts, we will most likely use PlatformIO to compile and flash the Arduino.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Code style<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    Code formatting<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    We will use \u201cblack\u201d for formatting our Python code. clang for C++ formatting.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Subsystems visualization<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
    \n

    Hydroplant aims to develop an autonomous vertical farming system. A conceptual visualization of this system can be seen in the provided diagram. Our design is based on distributed subsystems, with each subsystem functioning as an independent smart unit that offers specific services. These services can then be utilized by the Master Controller.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The Master Controller serves as the central “brain” of the system, driving its autonomy. It leverages the services from the various subsystems to fulfill the overall objectives. By adhering to a scheduled sequence of tasks and making independent decisions based on collected sensor data, the Master Controller ensures the system operates autonomously.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Requirements subsystems<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
    \n
    \n

    Below is a detailed list of requirements for each subsystem and module. These initial requirements are broad; over the next week, we’ll delve deeper into each one. We’ll closely examine and refine the specifics of each requirement, defining the interfaces, services, and performance criteria. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
