A MW deployment consists of a [wooden \"crate\"](https://github.com/guycole/mellow-wombat/blob/main/grafix/crate_dimensions.png) where the subsystems reside.  Mellow Wombat provides monitoring, power, network and RF distribution for the subsystems.\n\nMW is designed to fit within [Costco Storage Bin](https://costco.com/.product.4000205525.html) which are weather resistant, durable and inexpensive.  The only external resources to an \"storage bin\" is power and antennas.\n\nMellow Wombat can run autonomously for extended periods, and will share observations to a remote host when connectivity is restored.  MW can also be remotely tasked when connectivity exists.\n\n## Deployment\nMellow Wombat consists of a \"gateway\" which manages a fleet of \"collectors\".  All computers are connected via ethernet.\n\n![deployment](https://github.com/guycole/mellow-wombat/blob/main/grafix/wombat_deployment.jpg)\n\n## Gateway\nThere is only one gateway per crate, and it is typically a [Odroid N2](https://www.hardkernel.com/shop/odroid-n2-with-4gbyte-ram-2/) with 4GB of RAM and a 4TB [Western Digital Passport USB Drive](https://www.westerndigital.com/products/portable-drives/wd-my-passport-usb-3-0-hdd?sku=WDBPKJ0040BBK-WESN).  The gateway manages outside (the crate) connectivity (either wired or WiFi).  Gateway configuration described [here](https://github.com/guycole/mellow-wombat/blob/main/infra/odroidn2_config.md).\n\n## Shelf Catalog (Collectors)\n+ [Mellow Heeler](https://github.com/guycole/mellow-wombat/blob/main/shelf/heeler.md)\n+ [Mellow Hyena](https://github.com/guycole/mellow-wombat/blob/main/shelf/hyena.md)\n+ [Mellow Koala](https://github.com/guycole/mellow-wombat/blob/main/shelf/koala.md)\n+ [Mellow Manatee](https://github.com/guycole/mellow-wombat/blob/main/shelf/manatee.md)\n+ [Mellow Wombat](https://github.com/guycole/mellow-wombat/blob/main/shelf/housekeeper.md)\n\n## Crate Catalog\n| Crate                                                                     | Description (Shelves)                           |\n| ------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------- |\n| [01](https://github.com/guycole/mellow-wombat/blob/main/crate/crate01.md) | AC Power to 12V, 2 Shelves, Anderson            |\n| [02](https://github.com/guycole/mellow-wombat/blob/main/crate/crate02.md) | AC Power to 12V, 3 Shelves, Vallejo             |\n| [03](https://github.com/guycole/mellow-wombat/blob/main/crate/crate03.md) | AC Power, No Shelves: various development hosts |\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fguycole%2Fmellow-wombat","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fguycole%2Fmellow-wombat","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fguycole%2Fmellow-wombat/lists"}
