GPS stands for Global Positioning System. GPS module find the location (latitude, longitude, altitude) by comparing the time taken for receiving signals from satellites in its vicinity. GPS offers a great accuracy and also provides other data besides position coordinates.
In this article, I am going to explain about interfacing of GSM Module with Arduino. Interfacing a GSM module to Arduino is pretty simple. We have to make only 3 connections between the GSM module and Arduino. For the working demonstration we will be sending an SMS to a particular number whenever a switch is pressed.
In this project, we are going to log and monitor temperature data over internet using ThingSpeak IoT server. And we can view the logged data and graph over time in their website. It is made using ESP8266 WiFi module and LM35 temperature sensor. ESP8266 WiFi chip reads the current temperature from LM35 using ADC and sends it to ThingSpeak server for live monitoring from anywhere in the world.
In this project, we are going to monitor the current room temperature over internet using ESP8266 programmed as a web server. It is accomplished by establishing data communication between ESP8266 WiFi module and LM35 temperature sensor using ADC.
In this article we are going to explain about interfacing Rain Sensor with Arduino. The rain sensor module is an easy tool for rain detection. It operates as a switch when raindrop falls through the raining board and also it measures rainfall intensity. The module features, a rain sensing board and the control board that is separate for more convenience, power indicator LED and an adjustable sensitivity though a potentiometer.
Here we are programing ESP8266 as a web server, the chip enables WiFi connectivity and can be turned into a small functioning web server. We will connect ESP8266 to our local wifi network and we can control the LED through this local network. If you need to control it through internet you can use DDNS and port forwarding.
ESP8266 is the one of the most popular WiFi SoC (System on Chip) available today. It finds a lot of applications in IoT (Internet of Things), Home Automation fields. In this tutorial we will see how can we connect ESP8266 to a WiFi network.
