You can now use the BME688 – Temperature, Humidity, Pressure, and Gas Sensor with Adafruit.io WipperSnapper without the need for writing a single line of code! Like the BME280 & BMP280, this precision sensor from Bosch can measure humidity with ±3% accuracy, barometric pressure with ±1 hPa absolute accuracy, and temperature with ±1.0°C accuracy. Because pressure changes with altitude and the pressure measurements are so good, you can also use it as an altimeter with ±1 meter or better accuracy! The BME688 takes those sensors to the next step in that it contains a small MOX sensor. The heated metal oxide changes resistance based on the volatile organic compounds (VOC) in the air, so it can be used to detect gasses & alcohols such as Ethanol, Alcohol, and Carbon Monoxide, and perform air quality measurements.
With WipperSnapper, you can effortlessly connect various components and sensors to any of the 20+ supported development boards to build an internet-connected electronics project. The best part is that you can configure and control these sensors from the web using Adafruit IO, all without the need for programming.
Within Adafruit IO, The BME688 setup is the same as the BME680. Therefore, the guide for the BME680 (linked below) will also work with the BME688.
