First Impressions of a $9 CHIP Computer
Wow! Built-in Wifi + 4GB storage for $9? This changes the entire scope of my repeatedly-postponed environmental monitoring project. I can wire a $10 temperature/humidity sensor and put 40-50 of these devices around the building for $1k. I would easily pay $50 for a pre-made device that:1) Is built using CHIP and has a simply case + power adapter2) Is wired to https://www.sparkfun.com/products/101673) Has an easy Wifi setup process and does DHCP4) Lets me do a GET http://ip/status and gives me JSON of the current temperature and humidity.Then all I have to worry about is setting up a cron job that wgets all 50 devices and logs the result to DB.FYI equivalent systems, even non-NIST-calibrated ones cost $500/device or more.
