This project was done during the winter of 2017, in Halmstad, Sweden, when I was an exchange student there.
The weather station is based on Arduino, the following funcions have been implemented:
- show text with an LCD display
- input characters with a keypad
- monitor temperature with a temperature sensor
- display real time temperature
- draw a graph of temperature in the last 7 days
- track light source with a light sensor and a servo motor
- the servo motor will always point to the light source
- monitor pressure with a pressure sensor
I lost track of the details of the sensors I used, sorry about that.
I developed it with IAR Embedded Workbench, which belongs to a Swedish company, quite cool.
I had absolutely no idea about hardware when I started this project, that's why you can see messy wires on the board and crazy delays everywhere in the code :)
These two pictures can show what I did:
I missed the days in Sweden a lot.
