Weather station

thingiverse

As part of our mechatronics course, we were tasked with designing a weather station that utilized a split-flap display. The plates required a tight fit without the need for adhesive, which unfortunately was not achievable. To operate an Arduino (we employed the Arduino Uno) is necessary, accompanied by two phototransistors (e.g. GP1S51VJ000F), two stepper motors (e.g. 28BYJ-48) and a WiFi module (e.g. ESP8266). The Calibration.ino should be executed to produce arrays of indices for each flap (one for temperature and one for weather), which must then be copied into Vejrstation.ino (overwriting iconSteps and tempSteps). Upon successful execution, the latter program should be run on the Arduino.
