Disasters affect individuals and communities in varied ways, and we at Seeed feel a strong need to contribute positively. A one-size-fits-all approach is insufficient; hence, we provide a basic configuration as the minimum unit for purchase, enabling users to add sensors based on their specific requirements.

• Sustainable Return Program: Users can keep the pack if they find it useful. If not, we have a unique "drift program" where users can return the pack not to us, but to another individual or organization who purchased it. Once we confirm that the next recipient has received the pack, we will process a refund.
• Please note that only the basic configuration can be drifted. Any customs duties (if applicable) will be the responsibility of the recipient. If you wish to refund the additional sensors, please refer to the standardized policy.
• Support for Disaster Prevention Professionals: If you are already working in the disaster prevention sector, we encourage you to reach out as we may consider providing donations of the Mission Pack to your organization. Contact us at [email protected]
• Community Contributions: We invite everyone to join us in enhancing the Mission Pack to make it more effective in addressing various needs. Explore the various ways you can contribute on our GitHub repository, and we will provide rewards in return!

1.  Basic Configuration

● Basecamp

The Basecamp serves as the central hub for the system, integrating Wi-Fi Router, R1000 ReComputer with LoRaWAN Gateway, and Meshtastic Router Client. The RS485 Communication Interface expands the system's ability to integrate with additional sensors and devices, which is particularly useful for System Integrators (SI). The Ethernet connection provides a stable, wired network option that ensures uninterrupted data transmission and secure system control. The Wi-Fi IP Network within the Basecamp offers flexible, wireless connectivity, allowing devices to connect without physical cables. Learn more about the hardware and their capability here.

● Meshtastic Nodes

The T1000-E Tracker is a versatile device within the Meshtastic network, providing essential tracking and communication functions in environments where conventional network coverage is unavailable or unreliable.

• Additionally, the pack includes an HDMI 10" screen and a mini keyboard, offering a clear visual interface for monitoring data and system status, enhancing user interaction with the Mission Pack.

2.  Customizable Sensors

Discover various sensors to enhance your pack's functionality and adaptability.

Software:

1.  Node-RED

The Mission Pack is equipped with a powerful software environment, centered around Node-RED, an open-source visual programming tool that simplifies the integration and automation of IoT devices. Node-RED's intuitive drag-and-drop interface allows users to easily create workflows for data processing, alerts, and system control, making it accessible to both technical and non-technical users.

To further streamline the user experience, the software environment is packaged with Docker containers that are ready to deploy, ensuring that all necessary dependencies and configurations are pre-installed. This setup reduces the time and effort required to get the system operational, allowing users to focus on customizing and expanding their hazard response capabilities.

2.  SenseCraft AI

SenseCraft AI is a development toolkit and platform designed by Seeed Studio. It simplifies the deployment of AI applications, enabling users to leverage powerful AI models at the edge without extensive coding or complex configurations. SenseCraft AI offers an intuitive user interface that allows users to easily build datasets, train, deploy and fine-tune models. With just a few clicks, users can connect USB or IP cameras and start using pre-loaded AI models.

The platform supports seamless integration of various AI models, allowing users to upgrade their cameras with advanced capabilities like YOLOv8 for object detection without writing any code. Users can also configure multiple video streams and camera inputs, making it suitable for various applications, from security monitoring to industrial automation.

3.  Meshtastic®

Meshtastic® is an open-source project that leverages inexpensive LoRa radios to create a low-power, long-range, off-grid communication platform, especially useful in areas lacking reliable communication infrastructure. Entirely community-driven, Meshtastic supports decentralized, encrypted communication without needing a dedicated router or phone. It boasts an impressive range—holding a record of 254 kilometers—and excellent battery life, making it ideal for outdoor adventures or emergency scenarios. Users can send and receive text messages within the mesh network, and optional GPS-based location features further enhance its utility.
