Arduino
Introduction to the Weather Station Project

The weather station project utilizes


Arduino to monitor environmental
conditions.

It offers real-time data collection and


analysis for weather parameters.

This project is a great way to learn


about sensors and Arduino
programming.

1
Objectives of the Project

The main objective is to build a


functional weather station.

We aim to measure temperature,


humidity, and atmospheric pressure.

The project also focuses on data


visualization and logging.

2
Components Required

The essential components include an


Arduino board like the Uno or Nano.

We will use sensors such as DHT11 or


DHT22 for temperature and humidity.

A BMP180 sensor will be used to


measure atmospheric pressure.

3
Additional Components

We need a breadboard and jumper


wires for circuit connections.

An LCD display can be added for real-


time data output.

A Wi-Fi module, like the ESP8266, can


enable remote data access.

Challenges and Solutions

Common challenges include sensor


inaccuracies and power supply issues.

Solutions may involve selecting high-


quality sensors and stable power
sources.

Troubleshooting techniques can help


resolve programming errors
effectively.

12
Future Enhancements

Future enhancements could include


adding more sensors for additional
parameters.
