IOT123 - ASSIMILATE SENSOR HUB: ICOS10 GENERIC SHELL (HOOKUP WIRE)

thingiverse

Several ASSIMILATE SENSOR HUBS are slated. They have a common metadata and sensor dump interface with I2C ASSIMILATE SENSORS through the I2C protocol. This means that when a new sensor is developed, the MCU that hosts it does not need to be reprogrammed to accommodate the new functionality - just plug it in and reboot. We anticipate developing ASSIMILATE ACTORS support: posting a MQTT topic that the HUB listens to, and then routing the message to an actor (relay, indicator etc). One range of the ASSIMILATE SENSOR HUBS is the ICOS10: a geometry based on the upper 3/4 of the Platonic Solid "Icosohedron", which can host ten sensors. The range is expected to support different MCUs and power arrangements, so the reusable tasks have been split up into separate instructions. This design allows for flexibility in terms of hardware selection. This is the outer shell of the housing that has ten sockets for sensors and a panel for accessing power for the unit. It features specific parts for assembly with hookup wire (cheaper and time-consuming). There will be a version for assembly with IDC Connectors (quicker and more costly). The feet are included but require a specific base plate to attach to.
