Board games!  Time to play.  We're going to use the same option we used in 2020: [https://en.boardgamearena.com/ Board Game Arena] - it is known, many of us already have accounts, and it is free. If you didn't play with us last year, you can save a little time on Friday night by creating your account ahead of time.

And because it's more fun to video chat while we game together, don't forget to also log into our [https://meet.jit.si/klugpcig video chat room].
Presenter needed. Willing to volunteer?  Tell Tina.

Dennis DeLorme, on monitoring current and voltage in his river project.

Agenda:  Zoom in-app games, starting at 6:20 pm, for those who wish.  Link in your email.


As some of you know I have working with my brother on his river water quality monitor project. He is the director of the Prairie Waters Education and Research Center near Valley City North Dakota (http://www.vcsu.edu/prairiewaters/). One of their programs is River Watch (http://www.vcsu.edu/prairiewaters/river-watch) where high school students monitor a river in their area.

The monitor system is a solar powered data logger recording timestamp, temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen and conductivity.


Last fall I sent out a message asking what parts of the project people were interested in. I got 2 responses one asking how we picked components and one asking about solar power.


To cover these, the presentation will describe the history and evolution of the project over the last couple of years. It will be at a high to medium level. (I already covered specifics of the Bluetooth and WiFi interfaces in previous talks.)

I will also go through some of the problems and data that was collected last fall. Finally I'll demo the current WiFi interface using the actual hardware.
