Status
The Growver project is a journey. Some elements are mostly complete while others are still vague ideas. Naturally there are some things that don’t work. Check the blog pages to track progress, or get the summary here.
What’s Working | Detail |
---|---|
Teleoperated Control via web page | See software page for more details |
RESTful APIs | |
UART/terminal command interface | |
File system for user html/scripts | |
Watering under teleoperated control |
Additions in various states of completion (will be added as I have time)
Still to do | Detail |
---|---|
Autonomous operation | Earlier versions of Growver are autonomous - needs adaptation for Growver 2020 |
Raspberry Pi on Grovwer | Uses the UART interface. Rpi for camera, OpenCV, navigation etc. |
HTTPS | Currently HTTP only |
Perimeter wire navigation | Still the go-to tech for lawn robots. Will be ported from other Growvers to Growver 2020 |
Other sensors | Magnetometer, moisture, etc. these too need migration from other Growvers |
Security | Wi-Fi SSID and password are stored in plain text on Growver. It is highly recommended to use a guest network |
Security | There is no login for Growver. Anyone with Wi-Fi access and IP address (or local name) can operate Growver and even update firwmare. |
