Bouées Autonomes - Construction


What electronic components are needed to control the buoys?
We have designed a second controller to pilot the buoys, to replace, if desired, the existing joystick. We designed this new controller to overcome 3 limitations of the existing joystick: Improve the controller's battery life by increasing it from 2*300 mAh to 1500 mAh Improve screen readability with a much larger screen Immediate access to a buoy, without cycling between the 8 possible buoys 🔗 M5Stack hardware purchase links — Thank you for using them! We've partnered with

What electronic components are needed for an autonomous GPS buoy?
The buoy is composed of components very similar to those found in a drone. We primarily selected M5Stack components for their modularity, rich functionality, and the quality of the software libraries used to control them. Autonomous GPS buoys come in two levels: Standard buoy, controlled by a joystick (long-range LoRa protocol) for one to eight buoys, with local operation on the body of water Advanced Buoy, controlled by a mobile phone application, requiring an internet conne

What electronic components are needed for a joystick?
Autonomous GPS buoys come in two levels: Standard buoy , controlled by a joystick (long-range LoRa protocol) for one to eight buoys, with local operation on the body of water Advanced Buoy , controlled by a mobile phone application, but also by a joystick to fine-tune positioning visually on the water. The joystick is similar for both standard and advanced buoys. The only difference is its communication protocol: LoRa in standard mode and ESP-Now in advanced mode. 🔗 M5Stack
