Octopus is a fully open-source hardware platform designed to enable low-cost, modular environmental sensing for makers, educators, and citizen scientists. The system is built around a compact, 4-layer, custom-designed PCB and a 3D-printed enclosure, supporting Arduino-compatible microcontrollers (Nano 33 BLE Sense or Nicla Vision) and various plug-and-play sensors, including particulate matter, GPS, temperature, and humidity.
