INGA - Inexpensive Node for General Applications
Table of Contents
This Wiki shall help you to get started with INGA. We assume you use the Contiki Operating System. INGA is Open-source Hardware and we provide Eagle-Files as well as Gerber-Files in the Download section. You can build your own INGA and you are allowed to modify the design if you like. In our design we have only used 2 layers, there is broad space between the pcb-tracks and the drilling holes are comparatively wide, thus, manufacturing should not be too expensive - and if you are an expert you can even solder it yourself. A detailed description of the node can be found in the hardware Section.
Specifications
INGA's dimensions are 39 x 50 x 7 mm. INGA is based on the original Atmel AVR Raven Sensor Node and therefore is directly supported by Conitiki OS in it's basic functionality. We stripped some (in our opinion) useless stuff and added some more interesting sensors and functionality. See the Specifications-page for a more detailed overview.
Getting Started
To get started with INGA, you just need an USB cable and INGA. See the Getting Started section for further information.
Operating System Support
Currently, Contiki is being ported to the INGA platform. You can have a look at the current status at our Contiki page.
