Critical Functions Needed to Demonstrate Functionality and Feasibility
Color Sensor - read fluid color and determine pH level
Pump correct amount of water from pool into beaker
Dispense correct amount of chemical into beaker
Lessons Learned
Confirming HSV as a more suitable relation to pH and Chlorine than RGB
Determining the flow rate range for successful flow from the pumps tho & through respective solenoids
Learning the wiring of these individual component systems and the need to simplify the wiring for the final product
Learned that the spool idea became too time consuming and complicated, thus not worth the effort to reach the final goal of the product
Learned/proved all key critical functions of the product and what would be needed to evolve the design into its final form
