Open Source WiFi Weather Station

Overview Project: Open Source WIFI Weather Station System Objective: To get the temperature, humidity, illumination and even PM2.5 data around you. Difficulty: Middle Time-consuming: 5-hour Maker: Introduction : This device can acquire real-time temperature, humidity, illumination and even PM2.5 data around you, and display them on the screen. You can also connect it to the internet if needed. With a phone or a laptop, you can check the data anytime and anywhere, which can be easily achieved by Microduino.

Each sensor is connected with Microduino-Sensorhub, whose data can be analyzed and processed by the Microduino core module, and then displayed on the OLED. At the same time, you can connect the Microduino-Wifi and Microduino-Core together to the internet, communicating with mCotton (IOT platform) and giving feedback to users via text and graph info. You can check this data anytime and anywhere with your phones or laptops. This system is composed of sensors, coordinator, network adapter, OLED display, mCotton, integrated with sensor technology, network communication technology, OLED display technology and IOT technology. Sensors mainly complete the data collection of the temperature, humidity, light intensity, air quality, then the coordinator can process and analyze the collected data. Meatime, you can connect it to the internet and communicate with mCotton through the network adapter, and check these data on the mCotton. Structure of the Management Platform The platform can be divided into two parts: Microduino core control, responsible for sensors' data collection and connecting to the internet; mCotton IOT platform, responsible for displaying data to users in the way of curves so that you can check and share your surrounding weather, as follows: Main sensors The picture below display the procedure of the system. Data Collection System: Mainly responsible for collecting ambient temperature, humidity, light intensity data and etc. The data collected from the sensors will be uploaded to the Microduino core. Wireless Transmission System: The system sends the collected data to the server through wireless network, adopting Wifi data transmission. Data Processing System: This system is responsible for storage, upload and visual display so that users can check weather on their PC or phone client.

Weather Station needs to be connected into the internet, so a server for storage and display is indispensible. First of all, we need to build a network server. About mCotton Currently positioned to do an open universal networking platform, mCotton mainly providse sensor data access, storage and display services. It can offer a networking project platform for all of the open source software and hardware enthusiasts and manufacturing enterprises, enabling them to deliver IOT electronic products without the need to care about the server implementation details and operation. We only need to register an account in mCotton, it will provide you with a unique KEY API,which is used to recognize identity in the server. MCotton as an open public Internet access platform, it aims to serve all the enthusiasts and developers, so that the sensor data access, storage and display become easy and simple. Here we introduce how to use the mCotton platform to complete your easy access. Register Open the main page of mCotton: somvpn.cn:3000, click " Sign in/Join ", you'll see a pop-up showing login/register, then click "Create account" and enter the user register page. On the user register page, you can fill in the relevant information and complete. Add Devices Click "Projects" after login and enter the engineering page. Find "Weather Station" in the engineering page, click " Assemble to My Devices " and you can add your devices. Enter the name your device in "Name" and click "Submit" to publish. Get APIKEY After the publish, you can see your device on " My Garage " page. Find your Weather Station device and remember its unique ID. Program Download Stack Microduino-Core+ and Microduino-USBTTL without fixed order, and connect them to the PC via USB cable. Make sure you built Microduino IDE, otherwise, please refer to: 1-Arduino IDE installation instructions. Open Arduino IDE programming software, click【File】->【Open】 Scan the project program address, click " weatherCC3000.ino " and open it. Corresponding parameters needed to be configured in the "def.h" file: define WLAN_SSID “Wifi name you are going to connect.” define WLAN_PASS “Wifi password” define WEBSITE “Server address” define WEBSITEPORT “Server port” define APP_KIT_ID “ID number acquired from Step3步.” Click "Tool, select Microduino-Core+ as the board card, and the processor " Atmega644pa@16M,5V ", then burn the program. Install the Weather Station Step1:Fixate the OLED screen and A1 with screws. Step2:Assemble B1-B5 with B6. Step3:Assemble Core+, USBTTL, and the Hub together, use screws to fixate them on A2, then connect them on the PM 2.5 sensor with the cable. Stick the PM2.5 sensor to the base board. Step4:Assemble B7, B8 and B9 to the Temp&Hum sensor, Air senosr, Light sensor respectively as the picture shows. Step5:Connect the the Temp&Hum sensor, Air senosr, Light sensor on the Hub as the picture shows. Fixate the sensors on the slot where B1 and B2 combines as it mentioned in Step2, and after that, then connect A1 and A2 on the top and bottom of the system. Step6:Fixate the system with B0 after finishing the steps above, insert the USB cable and complete the weather station installation. At this time, you can see data of all sensors on the OLED screen. And the same time, you can also see the uploaded weather data on the pre-set mCotton device.
