eDOT - Arduino based precision clock and weather station, multipurpose information display

thingiverse

eDOT is a cutting-edge Arduino-based precision clock and weather station that boasts an integrated IR remote receiver and automatic brightness adjustment. This innovative device has been designed to be easily expanded with additional hardware such as a WIFI module or other peripherals. Thanks to its six 8x8 dot matrix LED display, the eDOT can showcase a wide range of information coming from internal sensors, custom scrolling messages, or wireless data received from the internet (RSS, etc). With an impressively low power consumption and a sleek design that combines a glass front face with 3D printed body parts, the eDOT is set to revolutionize the world of precision clocks and weather stations. The project is currently under development, but updates are promised soon. To stay ahead of the curve, be sure to check out the latest developments on my YouTube page at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aO3E_kaa-ro and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWbayQHAAWg.

The eDOT core, a versatile Arduino board with built-in RTC clock (DS3231), is also available on Hackster: https://www.hackster.io/antiElectron/edotcore-a-versatile-arduino-board-with-built-in-rtc-7a5b1a?ref=user&ref_id=110211&offset=12. Currently, the following parts are available for the eDOT project: * Left cover with BME280 sensor housing and expansion bay * 8x8 dot matrix LED display mounting bracket * Foot * Right cover with USB breakout board housing and custom Arduino board bay * Right body * Button panel Print Settings: Printer: Flashforge Dreamer Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.1 Notes: ABS Color: WHITE Temperature: 225°C Bed temp.: 120°C How I Designed This: Assembling instructions for the eDOT are coming soon, but if you're eager to get started, be sure to check out the eDOT core - PCB. For those who want a circuit that's ready to go straight from the box, I'm preparing a custom Arduino board with built-in RTC clock (DS3231). This compact board features: * 2 x I2C ports * 1 x SPI port * 1 x LDR input * 1 x IR sensor input * 3 x 0-5V analog inputs * 6 x digital I/O * 1 x Arduino programming port The board can be directly supplied up to 12Vdc.
