RiderCool - an Arduino/Adafruit Pool Management System

Post by miax »

This is my official post for RiderCool - my latest completed project built over the summer. It's a project inspired by the many projects that Adafruit Industries sells, and my burning desire to build and create things to make everyday life a little better. I've split my time 50/50 between RiderCool and RiderScan, my RFID barn management project. I was able to make faster progress with RiderCool and had hoped to have it ready in time for to use this summer, but at least I'll get to try it out and make a good video to show on Labor Day weekend! (no LEDs are getting wet yet).

RiderCool has many purposes:

1. Provide a technology platform for managing the pool with native XBee Network Protocol (XNP) support for sending data back for logging and to receive commands from a control router.
2. To measure how full our pool is, and report that data back to my computer using my XBee Network Protocol (XNP) for logging and tracking (http://sojournstudio.org/xnp/)
3. To activate a solenoid/valve that is connected to a garden hose, which will fill the pool with water.
4. To monitor, track and report-back the flow-rate of water going into the pool using an Adafruit flow-meter sensor (https://www.adafruit.com/products/828).
5. To monitor the temperature of the pool water, the ambient air, as well as ther CPU temp (https://www.adafruit.com/products/339), (https://www.adafruit.com/products/372)
6. To monitor a backup water-level sensor to ensure that the pool never over-flows.
7. To drive/control 4 RGB LED Strip controllers by Jeremy Saglimbeni; I have 40 meters of LED RGB Strip ringing-the pool. (http://thecustomgeek.com/2012/03/23/rgb ... r-ver-2-2/)
8. To displays the output of these sensors, LED status, etc on an Adafruit 1.8' TFT display for swimmers in the pool to see. (https://www.adafruit.com/products/358)
9. To provide button control resetting the system and controlling the RGB LED Strips using LED water-proof lights by Adafruit. (https://www.adafruit.com/products/482)
10. To teach me 3D printing - as this is my first 3D printing project with my MakerBot Replicator! (http://store.makerbot.com/replicator.html).
.
RiderCool was only possible because of the excellent products, tutorials and service that +Limor Fried and her company Adafruit Industries provides to its customers, and I have become a dedicated fan over the 1.5 years I've been making. With this project I got to learn 3D printing and got some real use out of my years in Blender training. I also got to combine different products in a completely water-proof system. Now that it's done, of course, the summer is over and its nearly time to close the pool down. But building this helped me through alot of dark days this summer.
.
There are 4 modules (Otter Boxes) in the RiderCool system, each of which is documented below. I can only add 3 images to a post, so I'll reply to the post and add more content/images so I can show the creation pics as well as the final product when shown in action (Coming Soon!). Two of the key shots that show the system are below, first a pic of the RiderCool Base with the solenoid/valve and Adafruit flow sensor installed (which will fill the pool with water):

The Power Module is a small-sized otter box with a laptop 12v/5A power supply and an adafruit 5V 2A power supply (https://www.adafruit.com/products/276) with the grounds tied-together:

.
The green power-button is actually not a power-button for the entire system, but rather a bypass power option that allows me to run the RGB LED Controllers by themselves without the Arduino Mega system controlling them (http://www.adafruit.com/products/916).
.
The Interface Module combines an Adafruit 1.8' TFT display (http://www.adafruit.com/products/358) and several more water-proof buttons to allow users the ability to view the sensor stats and control the RGB LED strips while swimming in the pool:

.
Lastly the RGB LED Controller module combines 4 of Jeremy's RGB LED controllers (http://thecustomgeek.com/2012/03/23/rgb ... r-ver-2-2/) in one large otter box, with the serial ports tied-together and fed into the Arduino for control. The switch allows me to use the strips manually (when combined with the green power button on the Power Module).

Each of the 4 modules (otter boxes) are connected together using the new Adafruit waterproof power connectors (http://www.adafruit.com/products/743) and their new waterproof 4-wire connectors (http://www.adafruit.com/products/744). I love these things, and they came in very handy when the project grew beyond the size of one otter box! I plan to use them on most of my projects.

Using Blender again was an absolute Joy, and I consider it a huge blessing that I am able to use Blender for creating 3D objects for printing!! I spent about 3 years making mods for the BANNED game, and during that time I learned a number of tools including Blender, Gimp, CrazyBump, NifScope and the GECK. Below is the largest 3D object I've ever created - it's my re-creation of the Dulles International Airport main terminal 200 years after nuclear war:

Creating the 10 models necessary for the RiderCool base was really a creation of love - it took many iterations and troubleshooting for me to figure out how to make models that will print well, and thankfully that process is over! Due to the small size of the modern 3D printers from MakerBot, I had to build the RiderCool base like a 3D puzzle in Blender, and then glue it together using a strong LockTite Epoxy:

One thing I found very hand was to setup a video camera right in front of the Replicator, so I can watch it print in real-time from my PC, and yet still have the printer isolated in a closet with the door closed (to prevent drafts; one of the things I struggle with and it made my models curl-up on the edges until I figured it out):

Overall I'm very happy - no actually I'm totally pumped about my 3D printer! Clearly the technology is still new, and I have to tweak and tweak as I learn how to get the prints to come out right, but I don't care - its AWESOME!! I mean, look at this strange thing!

To me it looks like a strange ark or boat of some kind, and yet it's perfectly shaped to hold and house the RiderCool components so that everything sits where it needs to be. I could Never have made this myself without a 3D printer! I think this is definitely the future. I clearly have to learn more about this new "art", and I have learned that having a good setup to securely glue parts together is important, just as I learned that I have to keep the replicator totally isolated from drafts. Still, it was a joy to build this!

I will post more about the project tomorrow, including the sketch and XNP aspects (which I'm due to make an update on very soon).

Thanks for reading, and all feedback is welcome! =)

Here is an overview diagram of the RiderCool controller itself, and how things are organized on the mega shield (it was a very tight fit!):

I've added the RiderCool sketch, blender file, and all the .stl 3d model files used to create the RiderCool base on a new GitHub site I just created for RiderCool at:

https://github.com/SojournStudios/RiderCool

The sketch I posted to GitHub is a version Without XNP in it (as I still need to trim-out a ton of debug stuff before I release the new engine). That made the sketch alot smaller and more managable:
