| Software Used: | Musicbox |
Since existing bluetooth speakers do not provide enough power, Martin decided to build custom speakers for usage on the camping ground of different festivals.
Software
The system is based on a regular Rasbian Lite installation, which gets adjusted by the installation script in the following way: 1. Installation and configuration of mopidy and useful extensions 2. Installation and configuration of bt_speaker
Hardware
From an electronics perspective, the system uses a raspberry pi in combination with a X400 HAT. It gets powered by a couple of plumb batteries.
The case is built with multiplex wood.
Further Improvements
- Shutdown board in case of power losses
- Different speaker (calculate needed volume)
- Check possibility to use a ESP32
- Make a workshop out of it
- Design a 3D-Printed front for the controls
