Gently nudged by Sir David, Il Capitano has kickstarted one of many winter projects: setting up datalogging and alarms on the boat. Fortunately, we found a selection of Arduino components for sale nearby. (Arduino is a small computer.)
The plan is for the computer to monitor water levels, pump activities, and more. Data will be stored on the website, and SMS alerts will be generated if unexpected events are detected.
A proof of concept was created in less than half a day. This would have taken weeks in the past when one relied on printed books and had no AI-generated code.
