Project Progress Update

Challenges:
  1. Writing the sketch for the Ph meter to sent a message to  the Arduino.
  2. Get a response for the Ardunio
  3. Writing the sketch for the wave shield to play a sound.
  4. Writing a sketch for the Arduino link to the filter to talk the Ardunio with the pH level when given a command.
  5. Getting the filter tray to filter the salt water.
  6. Getting the salt crystals to still grow during the process of filtering.
  7. The art piece is suppose to demonstrate  a sense of complexity of maintaining  the seawater level to produce grow of crystals with the disturbance of filtering fresh water.
Progress:
  1. Assemble my wave shield
  2. Purchase and receive materials to begin with colonizing salt crystals
  3. Experiment growth speed of crystals
  4. Experiment motion senors that adapt with water.
  5. Write a sketch for my wave shield
  6. Search for a pH meter to hack.
  7. Begin hacking the pH meter.
  8. Find a filter that will leave in sodium in the water.
  9. Looked up the functionality of the pH meter in order to manipulate the voltage of the "probe". C:\Users\Owner\Desktop\pH Meter, pH Meters, Hand Held & Benchtop pH Meters.mht
  10. Took the phH meter apart to inspect the parts the can be hack or altered.
  11. Start a colony of salt crystals and let sit in the sun.
  12. Wire the Switch tail to the ardunio board.
  13. Research the ardunio sound wave library in Ada fruit.
