Introduction:
We made a temperature sensor with the help of Arduino Uno and Bred Board, it tells the
current temperature of it surroundings, it is connected with a Bluetooth sensor from mobile
Application which is made through MIT App Inventor A temperature sensor is an
electronic device that measures the temperature of its environment and converts the
input data into electronic data to record, monitor, or signal temperature changes. There
are many different types of temperature sensors. Some temperature sensors
require direct contact with the physical object that is being monitored (contact
temperature sensors), while others indirectly measure the temperature of an object
(non-contact temperature sensors).
Non-contact temperature sensors are usually infrared (IR) sensors. They remotely
detect the IR energy emitted by an object and send a signal to a calibrated electronic
circuit that determines the object's temperature.
Functionalities:
The Temperature Sensor LM35 series are precision integrated-circuit temperature
devices with an output voltage linearly proportional to the Centigrade temperature.
The LM35 device has an advantage over linear temperature sensors calibrated in Kelvin,
as the user is not required to subtract a large constant voltage from the output to obtain
convenient Centigrade scaling. The LM35 device does not require any external
calibration or trimming to provide typical accuracies of ±¼°C at room temperature and
±¾°C over a full −55°C to 150°C temperature range.
What is Temperature
Temperature is a physical quantity that expresses hot and cold. It is the
manifestation of thermal energy, present in all matter, which is the source of the
occurrence of heat, a flow of energy, when a body is in contact with another that
is colder or hotter.
Temperature is measured with a thermometer. Thermometers are calibrated in
various temperature scales that historically have used various reference points
and thermometric substances for definition. The most common scales are
the Celsius scale (formerly called centigrade, denoted as °C), the Fahrenheit
scale (denoted as °F), and the Kelvin scale (denoted as K), the last of which is
predominantly used for scientific purposes by conventions of the International
System of Units (SI)
What is Humidity
Humidity is the concentration of water vapour present in the air. Water vapor,
the gaseous state of water, is generally invisible to the human eye. [1] Humidity
indicates the likelihood for precipitation, dew, or fog to be present.
Humidity depends on the temperature and pressure of the system of interest.
The same amount of water vapor results in higher humidity in cool air than warm
air. A related parameter is the dew point. The amount of water vapor needed to
achieve saturation increases as the temperature increases. As the temperature of
a parcel of air decreases it will eventually reach the saturation point without
adding or losing water mass. The amount of water vapor contained within a
parcel of air can vary significantly. For example, a parcel of air near saturation
may contain 28 g (0.99 oz) of water per cubic metre of air at 30 °C (86 °F), but
only 8 g (0.28 oz) of water per cubic metre of air at 8 °C (46 °F).

What is LED
A light-emitting diode (LED) is a semiconductor light source that emits light
when current flows through it. Electrons in the semiconductor recombine
with electron holes, releasing energy in the form of photons. The color of the
light (corresponding to the energy of the photons) is determined by the energy
required for electrons to cross the band gap of the semiconductor.[5] White light
is obtained by using multiple semiconductors or a layer of light-emitting
phosphor on the semiconductor device.
