Thanks, Pete. Suggested the raspi on the lan for it's ready internet access and built in io ports, as well as (iirc) someone wrote a lib for OE on the raspi to bitbang a set of pins as a 8bit gpio port. I keep being told it isn't feasable. It is prolly the priciest option, but it's also a standalone computer.
I keep saying "sensors" and "motor controllers", i guess i should be saying "IoT".
There's so many events that occur, if allowed to complete will cause various damages, such as a small grass fire. Or make for enjoyable bird watching or steam engine monitoring or solar panel state or running an array of model trains. Or remind me at 10pm that breakfast cooked at 8am is still in the microwave. Making OE/Phix IoT-friendly, to munge data and control the lil things in the real world, might be the Next Big Thing. Dismissing the idea might just be another nail in OE's coffin.
