  • BSD powered high-availability gummibĂ€rlĂ€mpchen talking to hardware using BSD and one-wire and some random hacks OneWire is a serial like protocol that requires two wires and is designed for up to three wires. With a USB to OneWire Adapter you can control the relays which turn on and off the bears. Goal is to run RTEMS on a GRiSP Board which is used to run Erlang applications on a realtime operating system. The GRiSP board sports a FreeBSD network stack, so networking is stable and performant.

There's also Jenkins integration for the “Red Bear alert”.
