Description

B3SI is a sensor interface for my space balloon/robot projects. It reads all serial output from Arduino and logs it with Python through a usb connection. My goal is to create a solid efficient sensor interface for collecting data from the atmosphere and to open source the code for anyone wanting to learn how it all works.

Decoded output to utf-8.

Fixed the output so it decodes displays and logs to utf-8. It was previously printing bytecode.
v0.1.0

So far in v0.1.0
- Reads CPU temp, atmosphere temp, humidity, and heat index.
- Takes pictures through webcam.
- Sorts unique strings during autorun.
To do:
- Barometric pressure sensor. Get rid of newline and byte characters on a_temp function. Add a lot more to make it the best possible space balloon/robot interface.
