Arduino Android Based Controller

[itri4ever]

Hi All,

I am nearing the end of the development of my DIY aqaurium controller bluetooth app. It is kind of sophisticated (as told to me by an app guru) but extremely easy on work and set up.

I have become quit proficient in the app development and coding for the app itself; but here lies my problem. I do not know C++ which is what i need to create the main loop and setup for the arduino to take the inputs from the app and run the actual controller (arduino mega based).

My question is: Is there anyone interested who is proficient with the C++ coding that would like to help with this build?

Let me know if you are interested. A lot of time has been spent on the app development and coding for that alone, i dont want it to go to waste....

Overview of app:
Bluetooth control
pH, Sal, ORP monitoring
water, hood temp readings
ATO with low resovoir alarm
Automatic feeding
currently 6 PWM LED channels with 1 PWM channel for sump
Wavemakers and syncing between multiple powerheads
sunrise, low sun, high sun, low sun, sunset,moon
Moon Phases corresponding with time of year
location picker to replicate actual geographical locations for lights
dosing for up to 4 pumps
automatic email alerts for numerous alarms


that is just the tip of the iceberg, so who wants to take on a monumental task.....

Hi!

It's a remunerated job?

Best regards.

As of right now, probably not, nor looking to go public with the app, but would share it free of charge to help out the community who can't afford the high end controllers. That's the game plan for the time being.

So you have the Android part but not the Arduino part?

nor looking to go public with the app.

That's a shame. If you made the project completely open source I'd help write the code. But if and only if the end product is open source and free to anyone who wants to build it.

That's the game plan. I am not looking to go public as in people would be able to get it free and not pay and completely open source. Sorry I can see how that was confusing.

And yes I have the android portion almost 100% complete

OK. I misunderstood your meaning of going public. To me going public just means releasing the code to everyone. Seems we have opposite ideas of what that means. Cool, I get you now.

As long as we're completely open source, let me know what you need the Arduino code to do. Just know that anything I write will be licensed GPL-V3 so it will be pretty permissive but won't allow anyone else to go closed source with the code I write. If you're cool with that then let's work.
