Ahead of next weeks presentation, we have been looking at current devices made using the Arduino board that may be similar or relate to our intended design. On the basis we hope to get a better understanding on how to go about replicating them and incorporating certain aspects into our intended concept.
Below are a number of videos we have posted in our Facebook Group to show what we have found on the internet. Being as Steve has tackled this task head on with the determination to get his water pump working in conjunction with the Arduino, some of these videos are especially relevant. Good luck Steve! ;)
This Video above uses a water pump to extract water from an area and transport it elsewhere.
Essentially the opposite of what we intend, but still interesting and clever nonetheless.
This video is slightly closer to our intended concept as it is spurting water out from a tube.
However, it is not doing it anywhere near the intensity we intend or want.
Not entirely relevant in terms on hardware/software similarities to our concept.
But a cool video produced from students much like ourselves nonetheless.
This Link will take you to a page with a couple more videos that once again is by a group of students who have used an Arduino board to create a water pump that moves water from one location to another by sucking the water up through a pipe system.
Again this isn't exactly what we intend to do with out concept, but much like the other videos, it provides good influence and insight to what might be possible if we get the construction of our concept correct and working.
Enjoy. :)
