This tutorial will walk you through the process of getting data from the BME280 Temperature, Pressure, and Humidity sensor to be displayed on a local webserver.  We will log the [ . . . ]

In this demonstration, we will use a few handy materials to show how a stream of water behaves like a fiber optic cable.   Materials An empty 2L bottle (preferably [ . . . ]

Some Arduino Code for STEM Across the Bay Blink One LED This code will blink a single LED for one second. The main features of this code are: pinMode(LED_BUILTIN, OUTPUT); [ . . . ]

I recently discovered that the BMP180 sensor has been discontinued, which is kind of a bummer.  I always found it to be a good little sensor for temperature and pressure. [ . . . ]

Test of the BME Sensor

I recently picked up an Arduino Gemma from Adafruit in the hopes that I could make some blinking pendants for an upcoming science night.  After a little trial and error, [ . . . ]

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. One out of three isn’t bad. Cardboard is a very versatile material, and its seems to be everywhere, just waiting to be reused.  This activity is going [ . . . ]

I often struggle with finding the IP address of my Raspberry Pi.  I usually need to plug it into a monitor, get its address, and then log in to it [ . . . ]

This tutorial is built on the amazing piece of software made by Andrea Fabrizi.  I found it on Raspi.tv and it is one of the handiest things I have come [ . . . ]
