Hello, as you may be aware I am quite new to these forums but what you may not know is that I am an electrical/electronic/mechanical engineer.
I was curious if there was a market for all in one control systems for numerous tanks?
I am currently in the process of creating a main control system to run four tanks which I am building and was wondering what features would be ideal?
The main concept of the system is to be able to add numerous tanks onto this system simple by adding a tank with lighting and connecting it up to a control board up to the limitations of conventional power sockets.
The main control system will run temperature settings individually from a probe in each tank and also humidity readings. The system will run both lights to keep the correct temperature and a configure able time system to what suits your needs and for the preferred reptile etc.
For my personal use I am installing a network card that I will connect to my server to run a live feed video to my phone so I can constantly inspect and view the in closures. Would people like this?
The main system will also have a GUI interface on a touch screen monitor to allow for changes required and visual display of temperatures and humidity to and create warning codes for different parameters.
To install a new tank you would add a new card to the system and connect the lighting and a probe and set it to the correct configuration you require.
Would you guys be interested in a product like this and also what other features would you consider?
Also I do 3D design and if any one would like plans on any vivariums to be built if you give me some details I will be able to draw up some designs for you guys, as a way of saying thank you to the community.
Regards,
Matt
