Mun sami labarai ne watanni da suka gabata cewa Rasberi Pi yana tafiya zuwa sararin samaniya godiya ga Aikin AstroPi, Babban aiki ba tare da wata shakka ba. Amma da alama Arduino koyaushe yana da «kishi»Na Rasberi Pi duk da cewa abubuwa daban-daban suke. Yuli na ƙarshe 7 NASA ta aika da ayyuka da yawa dangane da Arduino da Xbee akan roka ta sararin samaniya don dubawa da auna sigogin sararin samaniya daban-daban tare da wannan hardware libre.
Tunanin NASA shine ayi amfani da bincike tare da kumbo, don wannan ya zama dole a san sigogi daban-daban na sararin samaniya kamar zafin jiki, zafi, matsi, da sauransu ... Kuma ba shakka, don samun damar haɓaka hanyar sadarwa mara waya don haɗawa.
Tabbas, NASA ba za ta yi amfani da shi kai tsaye zuwa kumbon kumbo da aika shi zuwa sararin samaniya ba, don haka ta yanke shawarar yin sararin samaniya don Arduino da Xbee don ɗaukar wannan bayanan kuma NASA na iya yin kwaikwaiyo da gwaje-gwaje.
NASA zata yi amfani da Arduino Mega don aiki a cikin sarari
Kwamitin Arduino da aka yi amfani da shi shine Arduino Mega, babban kwamiti wanda da alama ya canza rayuwa a fannoni da yawa, ba kawai a sarari ba har ma a cikin buga 3D ko kuma mutum-mutumi. Bugu da kari, cibiyar sadarwar mara waya da za a kirkira za ta kasance tare da kayayyaki na Iridium, don haka idan tana aiki, za mu iya fuskantar wata sabuwar hanya ta tsere sararin samaniya tunda ba wai kawai za ta mai da hankali ga sararin samaniya ba ne har ma da yin aiki a cikin sararin samaniya, wani abu da har yanzu yana iyakance ga tauraron dan adam da tashoshin sararin samaniya.
Ni kaina ina son wannan sabon aikin na NASA don abin da yake bayarwa da kuma abin da za'a iya ƙirƙira shi a sarari daga gare shi duk da cewa bamu san komai game da zane ko software ɗin da Arduino Mega da Xbee zasu yi amfani da shi ba, wani abu da zai iya zama mai ban sha'awa don sassaucin mitocin kuma har ma za a iya amfani da su zuwa wasu yanayi na duniya.
