## Future Plans
A few things that I intend to add are:
- A way for the sensors to seek out a nearby gateway and pair with it.
- The ability to send data in reverse, and have nodes to control irrigation, ventilation, and LED illumination. This will be acheived using a similar pairing technique to the above.
- The next generation of FDRS will define a second type of packet, used to communicate between FDRS devices. With this new type of packet, a sensor will be able to seek out the nearest gateway and send to it. This will also allow [controller devices](https://github.com/timmbogner/Farm-Data-Relay-System/tree/main/Controllers) to register with and receive packets from gateways. Exciting stuff!
- The ability to send data in reverse, and have nodes to control irrigation, ventilation, and LED illumination. This will be achieved using the pairing technique above.
- More sensor sketches! If you have designed any open source sensor modules for ESP32 or 8266, please contact me and I will provide a link and/or code for your device in this repo.
- I am going to look into adding an option to change the channel that the system runs on, so that WiFi and ESP-NOW might run together harmoniously.
- Support for several new devices and protocols: ethernet, nRF24L01, 4G LTE, and the E5 LoRa module from Seeed Studio.
- Some ability to compress data for more efficient LoRa usage and to avoid using floats. Better documentation/development of the DataReading 'type' attribute will come with this.
