Summer Post #2

I’ve been interested in how information can be posted and shared from sensors and I worked on posting to my Adafruit IO dashboard. I used a board and activity that incorporated Arduino and modified the code to have both Fahrenheit and Celsius. These activities are fun to do but are taking away from doing the same thing but with Circuit Python which is a goal this summer.

I wonder if it’s possible for students and teachers to share information beyond what is seen in Zoom with something like a dashboard.

Now that I have the circuit working and prototyped I wondered if I could find a use for it. We have been raising some chicks and the temperature was important so I begin looking for a container. I found a way of creating a 3D printed box using an OpenSCAD file that allows for changing the dimensions and the openings for power cables. There is a Thingiverse tool that connects to an OpenSCAD file but I ended up downloading the app so I could change the panels.
