An open-source wind sensor design, taking inspiration from the project Windsensor Yachta by Norbert Walter.
It uses the same firmware, modified to work with this design.
The aims of this derivation are :
-
To simplify the building process, by making the PCB easier to solder by hand
-
To simplify the flashing, by using the ESP32C3 or C6 with a built-in USB interface (no more need for a serial to USB converter)
-
To reduce the size of the wind sensor, by shrinking the pcb and reworking the design, in order to reduce the wind resistance, making it more resilient to winds.
-
To test and validate the design in an actual wind tunnel.
