A rust controlled Badge for a conferences or anywhere else you want to be extra
- Display some text to the left like name and job title
- Display a small bmp image, can alternate images by pressing the c button. This example has Ferris with a knife and a QR code that links to this repo
- Connects to a Adafruit Sensirion SHTC3 via STEMMA QT / Qwiic to get real time temperature and humidity
- If you set a wifi network in .env the badge will set the pico's RTC and display the time one the display.
- Counts unique wifi bssid's it comes across and keeps those counts unique across reboots by writing to flash.
The project is a mosh posh of things to get it ready for an event I am going to this weekend, so it is not always the best code or well thought out. Especially timings, I did not want to always refresh everything as fast as possible for battery and Eink constraints.
- roughly every 5 mins it checks for new wifi networks
- roughly every 30 seconds it takes a new temp/humidity reading
- roughly every min it updates the time display, altho the RTC should keep pretty accurate timing
- roughly every 30 seconds it updates the top bar that holds wifi count as well as sensor data
- trvswgnr for their amazing ferris with a knife image. All i did was badly convert it to grayscale and scaled it down.
- embassy framework and their great examples. Exactly zero chance I would have any of this written without this directory.
- the uc8151-rs crate. Would not be able to write to the e ink display without this great crate.
- And every other single crate found in Cargo.toml. None of it would be possible with out those packages and maintainers.
