Adafruit SPA06-003 - Temperature + Pressure Sensor
The SPA06-003 can measure from 300~1100hPa (approximately -500 to +9000m from sea level) with typical relative accuracy of ±3 Pa (equivalent to ±0.25 meter) and absolute accuracy of ±30 Pascals, or ±2.5meters. Temperature measurement accuracy is ±1°C. As we mentioned, its not going to be as accurate or precise as the latest BMP series, but the price can't be beat!
Interpreting Environmental Sensor Data With Local "Edge" LLMs
Capture data from SEN66 environmental sensor on a Raspberry Pi 5. Then feed the data to various local and cloud-based LLMs to see if it can produce interesting or insightful summaries.
Local LLMs on Raspberry Pi
This guide will walk through the basics of setting up and using locally running LLMs on the Raspberry Pi. Traditionally most LLMs have been cloud based services that require a network connection and expensive subscription cost. Newer more compact and limited models have arrived that are capable of running on low end hardware locally and without a GPU.
