Propose tasks for students to work on:
- Create route/ui in Liquid Prep App to manage/monitor/view different sensors via wifi and/or bluetooth. (Currently its only connection is via bluetooth for Chrome on Android, and is broken recently on IOS)
- Update firmware to add OTA update support (have updated the firmware to support OTA update without reflashing, just need testing to validate it's working as expected)
- Update firmware to modify current wifi implementation to enable disconnect and join wifi AP (This also has been addressed, need testing)
- Integrate/implement ML/AI models to be managed and distributed by IEAM/OH as containerized workload
- Finalize express server containerization to expose endpoints as a service for Liquid Prep to interact with different sensors
- Finalize deployment pipeline (create/update Dockerfiles)
- Replicate DLR workflow to integrate with Liquid Prep solution to support LoRaWan sensors
- LoRaWan Gateway
- Redis DB?
