Paul Bouchier's Home Page

Welcome to Paul Bouchier's Home Page. Here you will find a variety of my work, both personal and professional. There are groups of pages dedicated to robots and to major projects. The navigation menu on the left of this page provides for navigation between pages.

Personal Projects

Non-robot engineering projects are described in the following linked pages.

LFP Battery Bank

A DIY-built LFP battery bank for Paul Bouchier's RV. Project page here, or click the image.

Flow Limiter

The flow limiter system limits daily outflow from a rain-filled water tank. It uses an Internet of Things (IoT) device to monitor water flow and limit it to the daily max, and to connect to the cloud and report flow data to the cloud. The cloud sends email alerts when anomalies are detected. Project page here, or click an image.

Starlink System

The Starlink System provides battery operation for the Starlink antenna, and the ability to locate the antenna and battery remotely, with a wifi backhaul link to the RV. Project page here or click on the image. 

Universal Robot Configurer (URC)

The URC is an implementation of Jon Hylands' URC work, documented here: https://github.com/JonHylands/micropython-stuff
