III-II SEMESTER CMR INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
WEEK-8
Aim: Write a program on Arduino or Raspberry Pi to retrieve temperature and humidity data
from the Cloud
Hardware Requirements:
1. Arduino UNO board
2. NodeMCU ESP8266 Breakout Board
3. DHT-11 temperature and humidity sensor
4. Jumper wires
5. Bread board
Procedure:
1. Open up the Arduino IDE and head over to the library manager.
2. Install the DHT library (You can also install it by going to Sketch > Include Library > Manage
Libraries, and search for adafruit dht library).
DHT sensor with 3 pins:
1. Power supply 3.5V to 5.5V.
2. Data, Outputs both Temperature and Humidity through serial Data.
3. Ground, Connected to the ground of the circuit.
Set up in source code:
1. Set your Wi-Fi SSID and password.
2. Set the API Key
3. Save->Compile->upload->now us can visualize our data in cloud
Source code:
#include "ThingSpeak.h"
#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>
const char ssid[] = "Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G"; // your network SSID (name)
const char pass[] = "mani@123"; // your network password

delay(100);
//-------------- End of Channel 2 -------------//
}
Output:
Connected to wifi Successfully
Humidity :63
Temperature : 9
