This weekend I've been working more with google polymer to get the web-interface going. It's going to take a little more work with node.js to get it functional. I'm theorizing more ways to make this run efficiently in memory with all of the dependencies.
Still looking kind of empty but I wanted to post some progress. I've also made more progress on the CAD schematics and should be ready to have the enclosure machined soon. Here is the most complex part, the bottom of the LED array enclosure.
The opposite piece for the bottom enclosure is a circle with a hexagon in the center and two rectangles which will remove to allow access to the CO2 tank and nutrient systems. The other parts will just be big circle discs and the siding.
I plotted the LEDs as well.
It only shows red, white, and blue even though there are deep red and royal blue. I've found the easiest way to distribute the LEDs would be in rows. For the reds you see, one horizontal row will be red, the next deep red, then red, etc. Blue and Royal Blue will be similar except on the opposite axis.
If you've seen the front page, you'll know the project deadlines are coming. I plan on releasing a video soon.
