How to Set Up the DHT11 Humidity Sensor on an Arduino
https://www.electronics-lab.com/how-to-set-up-the-dht11-humidity-sensor-on-an-arduino/
by circuitbasics.com: Because of their low cost and small size, DHT11 humidity and temperature sensors are perfect for lots of different DIY electronics projects. Some projects where the DHT11 would be useful include remote weather stations, home environment control systems, and agricultural/garden monitoring systems. The DHT11 is a digital sensor that lets you easily get relative […]
Adding Sensors to Monitor Hive Health
https://www.electronics-lab.com/adding-sensors-to-monitor-hive-health/
by Nathan Seidle @ makezine.com: The Digital Beehive uses Wi-Fi to broadcast a beehive’s weight, humidity, temperature, and battery voltage every minute to SparkFun’s data channel service called Phant. The raw data can be seen here but you can view some prettier graphs of the data here on analog.io (sign-in required). Adding Sensors to Monitor Hive […]
Humidity sensor using 8051
https://www.electronics-lab.com/humidity-sensor-using-8051/
by circuitstoday.com: This project is about a simple humidity sensor based on 8051 microcontroller. Humidity sensor is also called hygrometer. This circuit can sense relative humidity (RH) from 20% to 95% at an accuracy of 5%. The humidity information is displayed on a 16×2 LCD display. A relay is also provided which is set to be […]
Get rid of unpleasant odors easily and effectively
https://www.electronics-lab.com/get-rid-of-unpleasant-odors-easily-and-effectively/
USM-MEMS-VOC module evaluates rate of air pollution by contaminants such as cigarette smoke and cooking odors and allows control of air ventilation system on demand. Modul USM-MEMS-VOC is based on the innovative and highly stable TGS 8100 MEMS semiconductor sensor TGS8100 from Figaro. In the presence of detectable gas, sensor resistance decreases depending on gas […]

Jeremy Morgan @ jeremymorgan.com writes: Today I’m going to show you how to make sort of a mini weather station with a Raspberry Pi. This is an ongoing project of mine that I’ve been tinkering with so I’ll share my learnings with you. It started with a project I wrote about last month, and is […]
A Spark.io Indoor Ambient Quality Monitor
https://www.electronics-lab.com/a-spark-io-indoor-ambient-quality-monitor/
Davide Gironi has build an indoor ambient quality monitor based on particle.io : SXAM (Spark to Xively AMbient quality monitor), is an ambient quality monitor that logs 4 environmental parameters to the xively.com and display the ambient status by using for RGB leds. SXAM logs: Humidity, Temperature, Ambient noise, Brightness, Note: Spark.io is now Particle.io. […]
Damp-Pi – Room Moisture Extraction with Raspberry Pi
https://www.electronics-lab.com/damp-pi-room-moisture-extraction-with-raspberry-pi/
by davidhunt.ie : Over the last while I’ve been having a problem with excess humidity in the shower rooms. Imagine that, the builder never put in extractor fans when the house was built! Anyway, I could put in those fancy extractor fans with the built in timers or humidity sensors, but I decided to do things […]
A Xively AMbient QUality MOnitor built on ATmega328
https://www.electronics-lab.com/a-xively-ambient-quality-monitor-built-on-atmega328/
Davide Gironi has build an indoor ambient quality monitor that is able to measure temperature, humidity, noise and brightness and indicate the ambient quality using 4 bi-color LEDs. He writes: The data it is logged to the xively.com platform, and displayed to the user through 4 bi-color leds. It can be used to monitor you […]
