PROJECT 13: WEATHER STATION
IN THIS PROJECT YOU’LL SET UP A WEATHER STATION TO MEASURE TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY, AND DISPLAY THE VALUES ON AN LCD SCREEN.
PARTS REQUIRED
• Arduino board
• Breadboard
• Jumper wires
• 50k-ohm potentiometer
• 16x2 LCD screen (Hitachi HD44780 compatible)
• DHT11 humidity sensor
LIBRARIES REQUIRED
• LiquidCrystal
• DHT
HOW IT WORKS
The humidity sensor used in this project is the relatively cheap DHT11, shown in Figure 13-1, which measures both humidity and temperature. It uses a capacitive humidity sensor and resistive-type ...
