Wireless Remote Weather Station with micro:bit
May 11, 2020
Monitor the weather without being exposed to it through wireless communication between two micro:bits using the radio blocks! This is useful if your weather station is installed in a location that is difficult to retrieve data from the OpenLog. We will also explore a few different ways to send and receive data.
I did a similar setup a several months ago sending the data to a website. see https://makingwithheld.com/2020/01/22/microbit-iot-weather-station/
Sweet! I like the use of the ESP8266 to log data on ThingSpeak.
