Water quality monitor
schematic

I created this water monitoring device for the gravitational currents and the life magic exhibition at the Empty Gallery Hong Kong an exhibition of works by Susanne Winterling. It is a part of an artistic research project by Susanne that explores planetary sensing navigations below the surface. The device is based on a design by Shan He of Public Lab in cooperation with the folks at DF Robot.
