Learn how to build the CitRad sensor and contribute data to the project.

The building instructions are still in progress. Use at your own risk.

Requirements

  • Soldering experience**: Soldering the components together is challenging in places. You should therefore have soldering experience or get someone with soldering experience to help you.
  • You will need the parts from the [shopping list](/docs/shopping list/) and the necessary tools. You can check parts and tools list to see if you have everything you need. If you decide to design your own housing solution, you are of course welcome to do so. You may save a few laser cut/3D printed parts.

Time required

Experience from the first building workshops shows that you should take between 2 and 3 hours, depending on your soldering skills.

Dealing with the instructions

  • Read through the complete instructions once and check whether you can follow all the steps. This will also help you to better understand the individual steps.
  • Photos and description texts complement each other. Read through the instructions in full for each step and take a close look at all the photos for each step. Then you shouldn’t have any problems.
