Phase II: Additional Testing
01/31/2017 at 23:30 • 0 commentsOkay, a few quick updates:
- I've gotten a DS18B20 Temperature sensor working with the ESP8266 Huzzah
- I've gotten the deep sleep function on the ESP8266 Huzzah working as well, I am currently running long term tests to determine how long the weather station will run on 4x AA rechargable NiMH batteries.
Up next will be the following: Taking the Chirp! IoT plant sensor eagle schematics, fitting an ESP-12f with the various sensors I am using and running a trial-run with friends and family to see how they like have an internet accessible plant sensor. -
Phase I: Initial testing
10/16/2016 at 04:27 • 0 commentsPhase I: Initial testing of the ESP8266 microcontroller.
Confirmed that the ESP8266 microcontroller is capable of wireless connectivity.Confirmed that temperature/humidity/ambient light sensors are functional accurate.
Confirmed that setup can run on 4x AA battery power for several hours.
Confirmed that MQTT can be used to log sensor data.
