This PR provides a comprehensive analysis of the Signal Hunt codebase to assess modification capabilities for both receiver and transmitter components.

Analysis Summary

The Signal Hunt project implements an ESP32-based wireless treasure hunt game using ESP-NOW protocol. The codebase consists of:

Transmitter (transmitter/signal_transmitter.ino)

  • 207 lines of well-structured Arduino code
  • Broadcasts unique ID, name, points, and timestamp via ESP-NOW
  • Currently configured as "Gamma" transmitter (ID: 1003, 20 points)
  • 3-second transmission intervals with LED feedback

Receiver (receiver/signal_hunt_receiver.ino)

  • 1916 lines implementing complex signal processing and web interface
  • Creates WiFi access point "SIGNAL-HUNT" with web server
  • Processes ESP-NOW signals and calculates distance using RSSI
  • Hosts interactive radar-style web interface for signal visualization
  • Supports tracking up to 6 transmitters simultaneously

Modification Capabilities Confirmed

Transmitter Modifications:

  • Configuration changes (IDs, names, points, transmission timing)
  • LED behavior and feedback patterns
  • Data structure and protocol modifications
  • Power management and sleep modes

Receiver Modifications:

  • Signal processing algorithms and RSSI smoothing
  • Distance calculation parameters and accuracy
  • Web interface customization and radar display
  • Detection thresholds and timeout settings
  • Multi-transmitter tracking logic

Protocol Changes:

  • Data structure modifications for enhanced communication
  • ESP-NOW channel and encryption settings
  • Broadcast addressing and peer management

The codebase is well-documented, modular, and ready for customization based on specific requirements. All modifications can be implemented while maintaining the core ESP-NOW communication protocol and game mechanics.
