Outline

• Project：Open Source Smart Egg Demo System
• Objective：To collect the temperature and humidity data of every points of the egg.
• Difficulty：High
• Time-consuming：2 hours
• Maker：
• Introduction:

In this tutorial, we will use Microduino product module to build an egg temperature detection system. This system collect the content of every points of the egg through temperature sensor, and at the same time real time produce temperature representation.

Bill of Material

• Microduino Equipment

• Other Equipment

Principle of the Experiment

The smart egg system is mainly composed of two large division. The data acquisition section is composed of 8 LM75 temperature sensor and a 10DOF module, and real time collect the temperature and position state of multiple points of the egg, then connect with the mobile phone through the Bluetooth module Microduino-BT after the processing of the Core+ and send the data to the mobile relay, then upload to our cloud server mCotton. Then we can view the temperature representation and the egg’s posture representation through the webpage.

Debug Process

Overlay Microduino-Core+ and Microduino-USBTTL together, and upload the program that you have completed to Microduino-Core+ through Microduino-USBTTL with USB cable. Note：Please upload programs before stacking all modules together.

Open the Arduino IDE programming software, and click [File]->[Open], then choose Microduino_Audio_ble\ SmartEgg.ino after opening the card speaker folder.

Click "√", and programming. Click [Tool], and choose the right board + processor + port. Click "→", and upload.

Assembly

• Step1: When assembling first confirm whether the shell material is complete.

• Step2: Then fix the baseboard of Cube-S1 on the baseboard, as shown in the picture.
  
• Step3: Then splice Core+, BM, BT, and 10DOF（no up and down order）, and insert them into the baseboard of Cube-S1. Connect the lithium battery to the port of the BM module.

• Step4: Fix the sensor and the wood chip which is fixed with the sensor with screws, as shown in the picture.

• Step5: Join two pins to the baseboard of Sensorhub as the picture showing, and change all the interface into IIC interface. Then insert the 8 LM75 sensor into Sensorhub. Because all interfaces are IIC interface, so there is no difference in the position, just insert all the 8 sensors. After this step, put Sensorhub singly aside.

• Step6: Use two pieces of side column board to clamp the three wooden board to form a support structure, as shown in the following picture.

• Step7: 将插好传感器的 Plug the Sensorhub inserted with sensor into the egg structure through the crack in the side, then continue to use side pillar support board to pose the outline of the egg.

• Step8: Then insert the sensor into the slot on the side column respectively, and use fixation wooden bolts to fix every sensors, and you can decide the position according to your needs. But you should strive to collect position even, in order to easily get reasonable data.

• Step9: Finally, insert the annular fixation wooden chip at the top and bottom, to fix all jambs.

Now the egg portion is completed.

MCotton Setting

Enter https://mcotton.microduino.cn/projects Click Sign in/Join at top right corner, and click Create account at the bottom right corner in the drop-down menu to create your own account.

Input Email as your username and password, then click Create. After registration, it will automatically enter login status. If you haven’t login in, click Sign in at the top right corner to input username（email）and password to login in, then click Projects at the top left corner.

At this time, this page will display a number of labels. Find out Smart Egg label, and click Made It to enter the next page.

Here fill out your project name and project description. You should keep the highlighted part ID in mind, and it is suggested to keep in a TXT to store. Then click √Save.

Then enter myDevice page. You will see the project named as XXX( the name you just set), and click Details to enter the detail page.

In the following page, click the blue icon on the right of Data to enter the observation page.

If connect successfully, the egg’s data map will be displayed on the right, and on the left is the option setting part.

Mobile Relay

Click to open the phone APP to enter the following page

The picture will show the existing project information, where the Connected is the communication state between the mobile and mCotton, and the next true/false is the connection state between the egg and the mobile phone blueooth. Then click Start button at the top right corner to enter the next step, at this time, click the button at the top right corner and choose Add Device.

Input the name and the ID of the project which is recorded in mCotton steps, and click the CONNECT button at the top right corner.

Now the settings of the mobile phone relay part is finished. After all steps have been completed, watch the phone relay part, if the state is Connect，true. If it is, then you can begin to view web page to observe the data.
