The electrical architecture of Ed's Composter allowed the team to maximize the use of the pins while accomplishing all of the tasks set at hand.Â
We decided to keep the design as elegant as possible to guarantee reliability and efficiency.Â
There are a total of 7 subsystems that are part of Ed's Composter each critical to the functionality of the project.
