OpenMarine

Greetings, 
I’m trying to upgrade our Downeaster 38 and decided to go with an Openplotter install on a RPi4b. Love the features on Openplotter BTW. I wanted to get the Mottessier HAT but they are no longer available. My partial substitute is the Sense HAT (B) and while I can apparently run successful tests (apparent) output) I’m unable to add the sensors to I2C. Is it likely there could be a way to Add new sensor devices to the list. The following are the sensor devices included on the HAT.
ADS1015
ICM20948- 9 axis accl/mag/gyro
SHTC3 temp/humidty
LPS22HB barometric pressure
TCS34725 light sensor (no real plan to use this one yet)
My Daughter is a software engineer and with some guidance we might be able sort this out.
Thank you for you time and this excellent software!

Are you talking about this one?

Some of these sensors are in the TODO list of OpenPlotter:

- currently ADS1115 is supported and ADS1015 will be added to I2C app
- ICM20948 will be supported by pypilot app soon.

LPS22HB and SHTC3 are not on the list but it could be implemented using the adafruit libraries in the I2C app: https://github.com/openplotter/openplotter-i2c


Let me know if you want to work on this.

No plans for the TCS34725

thanks for the quick reply. I will try the link suggested and once again openplotter is super.

Yes thanks that is the product.

Hi all
The Waveshare Sense Hat (B) is available on Amazon now - did you ever make it work?

I bought (4) GY-91 modules, but every one I tried had a broken sensor- and gave up.
At least there is some reasonable return with Amazon

I have been able to produce data on all of the sensors. I was able to do this by using info from waveshare and another python site. My issue is having the I2C recognize it and send the data to openCPN. I’m not a coder but My daughter is and we have a plan to work on it.

corcuitpython was the site I used for output examples. You have to search by the individual sensors.
