1. Principles and practices

This week I worked on creating content for my website and about a potential project idea.

Initial project idea

• I’m thinking about desgning a portable weather station that can measure temperature, humidity and can also display date and time. Although I’m not clear about the whole structure, I think it should be enclosed in a box where there is the electronics inside and outside there’s an LED display that shows all the measurements, I’m also thinking about extra functionalities like an alarm and an extreme weather warning.

• My project idea later changed to be a simple working environment sensor that could measure C02 level, temperature, humidity and brightness in a work place. This kind of device could be installed in offices, schools and other Workplaces.

• As shown below there’s the desired Hardware connections and Final product. However, In the end easier sensors to obtain were Humidity and temperature Which were used in the final Project.
