From the project
1.0 for Bachelor Thesis for Computer Engineering at HTW Berlin
Low-power embedded systems bachelor thesis project for a solar-powered marine navigation light with LiFePO4 battery protection, day/night behavior, BLE diagnostics, and bench/field test data.
Marine marker lights need to run for long periods with limited energy and changing environmental conditions. This project implements a prototype that manages light behavior, charging conditions, battery state, and fault handling on an STM32L151 platform, with a BLE-based web interface for bring-up and testing.
