And so we arrive to the third and -for now- last entry in our adventure about connecting a sensor at home and sending the measurements to the Onesait Platform.
In the first entry, we saw how to choose the working environment and set up both the ontology and the API service to ingest the data. In the second part, I told you how to hook the cables between the boards, how to configure the Arduino IDE to work, how to write the code that collects and sends the measurements to the Platform, and how to see that it was indeed received correctly.

You can find part 1 here and part 3 here.
As we said, in the summertime, you may get a little bored and feel in the mood to build a control panel that displays the temperature of the rooms obtained by means of IoT sensors. Surely it's the usual for all of us.

The good thing about summertime is that it gives you time for inventiveness (or maybe for boredom), so this year, I decided to carry out a personal project that I had been thinking about for some time: measuring the temperature at home.
It wasn't really the newest among ideas, or one of those world-changing ones, because a couple of years ago, I was measuring it with a Raspberry Pi and a thermometer, and displaying the information on a LCD screen. It was very cute and stuff, but there was no historical record nor could I see the information beyond that screen or anything.
