Orange PI Weather

Hello Orange Forum !

I'm Benoît, a French student in IT.
I would like create a little weather station with the board " Orange PI 2G-IOT" and several sensors like temperature and pressure.

Why I prefer this board for this project ?...
.... because a weather station must be outside, so with her 2G antenna, this little weather station will be able to send sms with temperature information for example.

Another function of the station would be to send commands according to temperature threshold. For example, if it is too hot, lower the electric blinds.
With this small 2G board, full of possibilities are offered.

In addition, having an orange pi will allow me to introduce this brand in my school. Indeed, Orange pi is very little known in France.

Vote for my Awesome project !

Best Regards,
Benoît

Looks like a very good idea!
I'm planning on something similar myself for a school project. Mine is going to have mono-crystalline solar panel and battery backup, so it will be self sufficient.

Only thing i need to figure out is what sensors to buy to be compatible with the board.

Hello hojnikb,
Thank you !
Yes a self-sufficient energy system is a good idea !
For the sensors, I just see in the forum that Orange will come out of the sensors compatible with their boards

I would recommend the Bosch BME280 I2C temp/humidity/pressure sensor. It's low power, inexpensive and easy to use. I released a C library to talk to it:

A particularly palatable and logical answer y this individual. They are putting forth extraordinary attempts to make it clear for the understudies As I have purchased site https://www.collegebasics.com/blog/choosing-best-essay-writing-service/ subscription for my help and I have taken in a great deal from this blog. The expert of material science is showing us in an extraordinary manner.

О! I was just recently writing about the development of chess sport in Spain. Actually I study in Washington, but I was born in Spain myself and I like chess very much, so that's why my topic was like that. Actually it was very difficult to find a sufficient amount of interesting information and I had to spend a lot of time. I don't regret it, but now I'd rather order this kind of essay https://www.assignmenthelper.com.au/buy-research-papers from professionals than waste so much time =)
