Ribbit Network is a large network of open-source, low-cost, Greenhouse Gas (CO2 and hopefully other gasses in the future) Detection Sensors. These sensor units will be sold by the Ribbit Network and will upload their data to the cloud, creating the world's most complete Greenhouse Gas dataset.
This repository contains the design files, software, documentation, and assembly instructions for the Frog Sensor.
Frog Sensors
Our “Frogs” are tiny sensors that you can build and deploy at your own home! It’s a small,
open-source device that measures the amount of CO2 in the air using a tiny laser.
It's easy to set up and will constantly record valuable scientific data on our climate.
Frogs are one of the species that are most affected by climate change!
Just like our sensors, they ribbit to one another to create a powerful network
of data about the environment.
Build a Frog!
We encourage you to jump in and build your own Frog Sensor! It's recommended
to build a V4 Frog and the instructions from this repo are rendered into a nice webpage at the link below:
There have been four major versions of the Frog Sensor to date. We currently recommend building version 4 of the Frog and this repo contains the files and instructions relevant to V4.
Frog Sensor Version 4 - This version of the sensor is based on an esp32 microcontroller.
Frog Sensor Version 3 - This version is based on a Raspberry Pi CM4 and includes a fully 3D printed enclosure.
Frog Sensor Version 2 - This version is based on a Beaglebone black and includes a fully 3D printed enclosure.
Frog Sensor Version 1 - This version was based on the Raspberry Pi and included an off-the-shelf enclosure
See each folder linked above for the relevant design files, CAD, and assembly instructions!
The mechanical design files are hosted on Onshape. Onshape is available to use for free with public assemblies and you can create a copy of the assembly for any edits you would like to make.
Are you interested in getting more involved or leading an effort in the Ribbit Network project? We are recruiting for additional members to join the Core Team. See the Open Roles and descriptions here..
Contributing
See the Issues section of this project for the work that I've currently scoped out to be done. Reach out to me if you are interested in helping out! The projects section helps detail the major efforts going on right now.
We have a contributing guide that details the process for making a contribution.
Ribbit Network is a non-profit (501c3) creating the world's largest Greenhouse Gas Emissions dataset that will empower anyone to join in the work on climate and provide informed data for climate action. We're an all volunteer team building everything we do in the open-source community.
If you would like to consider sponsoring Ribbit Network you can do via this link. The money is used to pay for software fees, purchase R&D hardware and generally support the mission of Ribbit Network.
