Joystick

We have just finalized a joystick for piloting and moving the buoys. Until now, the buoys and the Course were piloted exclusively with a mobile phone and an integrated dashboard. This is very comprehensive and practical, with advanced features such as one-click course setup and repositioning, and buoy visualization on a map. However, this dashboard requires all buoys to be connected to the internet. Therefore, we developed a joystick that can operate in two ways: In addition

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
