Summary


In this project, we built a Bluetooth– and Arduino–based temperature and humidity sensor. Using this sensor, you can measure data that comes from your Arduino board via Bluetooth and display this data on your computer.

Let's see the major takeaways from this chapter. In the first part of the chapter, we chose the components of this project, including the Bluetooth module and the temperature and humidity sensor. We also downloaded and installed the required software components of the project.

Then, we built the hardware part of the project and made the required connections on the breadboard. We connected the Bluetooth module and the temperature and humidity sensor to the Arduino board.

Then, we spent some time building the main sketch of the project. At the same time, we tested the project by checking whether the Bluetooth connection was actually working. We also checked whether the temperature and humidity sensor was working correctly.

Finally, we used Python to build a simple interface...
