The sensors are fired 🥲.
So as to increase its accuracy it had to be prepped by plugging it for a long time.
But it got fried in the process.

Beta test running.
No errors in the code but some sensors are not responding.

Today’s Progress – Survival Mate Prototype

I’ve completed the critical initial step of gathering all the electronic components for the Survival Mate prototype — a pivotal milestone that lays the foundation for seamless hardware integration and efficient coding workflows.

Components Collected:

Microcontroller: Arduino Uno (with protective casing) — the central processing unit, offering robust performance and ample I/O for sensors and controls.

Breadboard & Jumper Wires: For prototyping and circuit testing without soldering, enabling quick iterations and debugging.

Sensors:

MQ Gas Sensors (CO, Methane, etc.) — real-time air quality monitoring.

Ultrasonic Sensor — obstacle detection and distance measurement.

DHT11 Temperature & Humidity Sensor — local weather tracking.

GPS Module — precise geolocation for navigation and tracking.

Gas Sensor Module — detects specific gas types.

LCD Display (16x2) — real-time status updates and alerts.

Push Button Array — user input and control.

Next Steps:

Verify sensor calibrations and test individual modules.

Design initial circuit diagrams for sensor-Arduino integration.

Develop modular code libraries for sensor data acquisition.

Plan LCD display flow for intuitive user feedback.
