商品描述
Heat, cold, humidity, smog, and even radiation. Solar, wind, and hydro. How can you measure these using inexpensive hardware? And how do you put that hardware together? In Arduino Projects for the Citizen Scientist, Steve Spence, citizen scientist and dedicated gadgeteer, explains it all. You'll learn how to use sensors to gather information about the environment and different types of energy, including logging and decision-making based on that information.
The Arduino is a low-cost, easy-to-program microcontroller perfectly suited for teaching and learning about electronics, programming, and sensing the world around us. Whether you are doing a science fair project or you're just interested in learning more about measuring air quality, weather data, and energy using Arduino and sensors, Arduino Science Fair Projects is the fun and practical book for you.
What you’ll learn
- How to select the right sensors for each project
- How to monitor events
- How to log data, including using the MySQL Arduino/connector invented by Apress author Charles Bell
- How to use that data for forecasting and decision-making
- How to display data and calculate responses
- How to store the data using MySQL on Raspberry Pi for long-term comparison and analysis
Who this book is for
Teachers, students, citizen scientists, inventors, makers, and anyone interested in learning how to make fun, interesting, and useful sensor projects with Arduino.
