other Raspberries can probably be achieved by tweaking the device paths in the
`app.py` file, but isn't confirmed at this point. Theoretically, 3 Model B and
Zero W should work out of the box, but models without Wi-Fi will need an
external Wi-Fi adapter if Wi-Fi functionality is desired. The practicality of
compiling Python on the first generation of Raspberry Pis is also very
questionable.
external Wi-Fi adapter if Wi-Fi functionality is desired.
Sensors required for operation are:
- AS7265x
- VEML6075
- APDS-9301
They provide the spectrometry data, UV data and illuminance data, respectively.
They all support I2C, AS7265x supports UART in addition.
TeraHz depends on three separate sensor boards:
- AS7265x spectral chipset
- VEML6075 UV sensor
- APDS-9301 lux-meter
The sensors leech power from the GPIO connector, thus eliminating the need for a
separate power supply. The necessary power for the whole system is delivered through
