Greenhouse Shield for Arduino
-Copyright 2010 by Bdale Garbee, released under the TAPR Open Hardware License
This is a board my son Robert is building to monitor and control conditions
in our back yard greenhouse. The objective is a "shield" for an Arduino
too hot. The hydroponics pump gets turned on and off on a regular schedule.
And the RF link provides a mechanism for remotely downloading the logged data,
changing setpoints and schedules, manual override, etc.
