ESP8266 WiFi Weather Station with Color TFT Display
Build a Weather Station with ESP8266
by Ruiz Brothers
Use the ESP8266 to pull weather conditions and forecast to display them on a color TFT touch screen display.
Adafruit Si7021 Temperature + Humidity Sensor
Get the current ambient temperature and humidity
by lady ada
This lovely sensor for Silicon labs has ± 3% relative humidity measurements with a range of 0–80% RH, and ±0.4 °C temperature accuracy at a range of -10 to +85 °C. Great for all of your environmental sensing projects. It uses I2C for data transfer so it works with a wide range of microcontrollers.
Manually bridging MQTT to Adafruit.IO
Get sensor data from a local MQTT broker into Adafruit.IO
by Philip Moyer
Multiple MQTT brokers are bridged (manually) to allow sensor data to flow from a local network to io.adafruit.com!
Adafruit VEML6070 UV Sensor Breakout
Read UV light intensity over I2C
by lady ada
This little sensor is a great way to add UV light sensing to any microcontroller project. The VEML6070 from Vishay has a true UV A light sensor and an I2C-controlled ADC that will take readings and integrate them for you over ~60ms to 500ms.
Huzzah Weather Display
a simple WiFi OLED weather display
by Andy Doro
A weather display device using the Huzzah WiFi module and 1.3" OLED display.
Adafruit BMP280 Barometric Pressure + Temperature Sensor Breakout
Buld your next weather sensing system
by lady ada
Bosch has stepped up their game with their new BMP280 sensor, an environmental sensor with temperature and barometric pressure! This sensor is great for all sorts of weather/environmental sensing and can even be used in both I2C and SPI!
Adafruit BME280 Humidity + Barometric Pressure + Temperature Sensor Breakout
Buld your next weather and enviromental sensing system
by lady ada
Bosch has stepped up their game with their new BME280 sensor, an environmental sensor with temperature, barometric pressure and humidity! This sensor is great for all sorts of weather/environmental sensing and can even be used in both I2C and SPI!
Calibrating Sensors
Get peak performance from all your sensors.
by Bill Earl
Most modern sensors perform quite well right out-of-the box. But the sensor is only part of the measurement system. For best accuracy in critical applications, you will want to calibrate.
Create an Internet of Things Dashboard with Adafruit IO
Visualise data measurements inside an online Adafruit IO dashboard
by M. Schwartz
In this guide you will learn how to make measurements (temperature, humidity, ambient light) with an Arduino board and send this data via WiFi to Adafruit IO. You will then be able to visualise this data in real-time, from anywhere in the world!
Adafruit BMP183 SPI Barometric Pressure & Altitude Sensor
All the joy of a BMP085 - in SPI format!
by lady ada
The BMP183 is the next-generation of sensors from Bosch, and is the fraternal twin of the BMP180 - with a low altitude noise of 0.25m and the same fast conversion time. It has the same specifications, but uses SPI instead of I2C. This is great for users where there is an I2C address collision, they want more than one sensor on a single microcontroller, more flexibility on pin usage, or just prefer the simplicity of SPI.
Adafruit HTU21D-F Temperature & Humidity Sensor
Easy and precise temp and humidity monitoring
by lady ada
It's summer and you're sweating and your hair's all frizzy and all you really want to know is why the weatherman said this morning that today's relative humidity would max out at a perfectly reasonable 52% when it feels more like 77%. Enter the HTU21D-F Temperature + Humidity Sensor - the best way to prove the weatherman wrong!
Adafruit CC3000 WiFi and Xively
Connect sensors to Xively with Arduino & the CC3000 WiFi chip!
by M. Schwartz
In this guide you will learn how to connect your sensors to the Internet of Things platform Xively using Arduino & the Adafruit CC3000 WiFi breakout board. With Xively, you can then monitor the status of your sensors from anywhere using the Xively web interface.
Bosch BMP085 Breakout Board
Barometric Pressure, Temperature, & Altitude Sensor
by lady ada
This precision sensor from Bosch is the best low-cost sensing solution for measuring barometric pressure and temperature. This is a detailed guide so you can understand the sensor in depth including how to properly calculate altitude based on sea-level barometric pressure.
