Field Control System
- Problem
- A rugged controller was needed to collect sensor data in an outdoor or semi-outdoor environment, drive relays, motors and lights through local decisions, and expose traceable status information to an operator.
- Solution
- An ESP32/Raspberry Pi class control layer, digital and analog I/O, relay and motor driver integration, wired/wireless communication, event logging, status panel and field enclosure approach were handled together. The path from dev-board prototype to a cleaner product architecture was mapped.
- Result
- The work defined a modular field-testable prototype approach, connection architecture, software flow, mounting plan and technical revision list for productization.
