Designing a Remote Room Monitoring System with Arduino and BME280 Sensor

This article describes the hardware and software implementation of an application for monitoring parameters in a room. The reported values are visualized in a web application, which allows for the data to be viewed from anywhere in the world. The development made and the sensor used allow for measuring temperature, humidity, and pressure in a room. This is of particular importance for people who work with food products, materials that are dependent on temperature conditions, for families with children who want to maintain a certain home temperature and humidity, and many others. Each parameter is of particular importance for a person's health. All measurement data is stored in a database and can be used for statistics and analysis of changes in the room. The components used in the hardware implementation of the project are a Wi-Fi board ESP8266, Arduino UNO, and a sensor for simultaneous measurement of temperature, humidity, and pressure—BME280. The technologies used in the design of the software implementation of the project are JAVA, PHP, MySQL, Arduino IDE, hosting server, and domain name.
