R&D projects
-
Hardware · ControlFeralBoard: the board that connects machines to the screenFeralBoard is a control board designed by Feralbyte. It switches several loads on and off through relays, reads sensors such as temperature, and works with a touchscreen for the operator. It is used to control industrial machines.
-
Sensing · Hardware + softwareFeralSense: the environmental sensor and the platform that shows its readingsFeralSense is a compact device, with its own enclosure, that measures temperature, humidity, CO₂, noise, light, pressure and wind and sends the readings over Wi-Fi. The platform shows the latest value of each sensor and the history per device and per period. Hardware, firmware and application are developed at Feralbyte.
