This is a blog mostly about techie things, what I am doing to my apartment network on the cheap, IOT, 3D Printing, Raspberry Pis, Arduinos, ESP32, ESP8266, Home Automation, Personal Weather Stations, Things That Go Bump in the Night, and some side issues that need discussing. Remember, sometimes the journey to an end is as much fun as the goal achieved!

Working with a GuertDino
Ok, I now have a GertDuino in hand. I just happened to see it when I was in Micro Center. right now, I am planning on using it with the optical parts and the pollen parts of the weather station. It's Black Friday weekend and I think I will have some time to work on this. I have been facing a problem with how to transport the information from the sensors to my home network without having a physical connection, or just one cable. I have thought about using PoE injector/extractor pairs but that doesn't seem to be the correct way to do the job. The GertDuino might be a way that I can offload the sensor sampling from a RPi - not that I need to do such a thing; only that it is a neat use of technology to have a cross-platform sensor rig. Oh well, maybe I might use it for something else entirely. But a neat idea anyway.
