Humidity and Temperature Logging From Your Pi or Beaglebone Black to the Cloud! We’ve updated our DHT Humidity Sensing on Raspberry Pi or Beaglebone Black with GDocs Logging guide for compatibility with Linux CircuitPython Libraries. You’ll be using CircuitPython_DHT, a DHT-sensor library which can run on either a Pi or BeagleBone without extra configuration or setup.
Time to start exploring more sensors with the Raspberry Pi and Beaglebone Black! Today we’ll be checking out the DHT11, DHT22 and AM2302 humidity and temperature sensors available from Adafruit
Once we have our libraries installed, we add the fun of CPython3 to update a google spreadsheet live with the temperature/humidity data. This project would be the great basis for home or garden automation!
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7:30pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.
