The purpose behind my project to to use the Sense Hat with the Raspberry Pi to track and log weather differences. Hopefully this technology can do better than the local weather man. I will have my Raspberry Pi, a connecting monitor, the Sense Hat, a Wi-Fi connection, an SD Card, and any attaching cords to connect everything. The more I look into the Sense Hat, I could find other things I may need. https://pimylifeup.com/raspberry-pi-weather-station/ Link to tutorial website for the weather station.

The main idea of what the Sense Hat does for the Weather project is sense different temperatures, humidity levels, and air pressures at different times throughout the day. The Sense Hat has three different sensors that are used for this activity; Humidity, Pressure, and Temperature sensors that scan its area through out the day. This means you can scan the weather in any situation. In your house and other buildings as well as outside. The Sense Hat logs its data through the Raspberry Pi processor and is retrievable through connection to Wi-Fi and a monitor.

Above is a link to a video with a visual tutorial of what to expect and what to code to make this project work. This is from the same link in the first paragraph but still seemed very useful and interesting.

Raspberry Pi Weather Station

What I enjoy about this project the most is I am aiming to do something with the computer that I seemingly understand. We all deal with the weather everyday, so as a beginner, being able to understand the information I might find is a big help. This is also why I would recommend this project to someone else. It doesn’t feel out of reach with information and skills I don’t have or understand yet. The Sense Hat brings a level of challenge, but still feels possible and understandable.
