Artefact — Sensors and actuation

Status: stub. A sensor and actuator table lands in Phase 7.

What the artefact is

The parts list of the fleet in the way an engineer would want it: what is sensed, which device senses it, what is actuated, and how the decision reaches a physical action — a relay, a solenoid, a servo, a step-down converter switching 240V, a wheel that flicks food into a tank, an auger that dispenses it, a load cell that decides when to top up water.

What it proves

Range across the awkward middle of embedded work: not just reading a sensor but choosing an actuator, sizing its driver, and making the whole loop recoverable when the network is absent.

When it is delivered
