I am pursuing a Masters's Degree in Physics; This wave energy simulator model is exciting. I have experience in robotics and have worked with microcontrollers like Arduino, Raspberry, and ESP328266 12F. This is a straightforward and curious project. I have all the components for this project, like the rotary encoder and raspberry pi. I can design the supporting circuit for your project, write code for raspberry pi and perform data analysis if required. I will simultaneously replicate the model at my location(for testing code and troubleshooting) and help you to build the same at your place, with detailed step-by-step instructions. Please dm me so we can discuss further terms and start working as soon as possible.
