Remote Wireless Weather Station Bradd Konert
Xbee Intro • Xbee = wireless serial communication • Wireless technology based on 802.15.4 2.4GHZ • Short distance (900ft) and long distance (1 mile).
Previous Work • Hank Grimmick • 1-Wire sensors
Initial Idea • ASP.NET = main goal • 1-wire does not support Windows • Rainwise Rain Gauge • 2 Semesters… boring… zzzz
Next Idea • Reading Meteorological Values • Barometric Pressure • Relative Humidity • UV Index • Temperature • Display values to LCD screen • Wireless Transmitting to Server • Display on Internet

Arduino Code • C Based • Wiring Library • Streamlined and User Friendly • pinMode(weatherBoardPowerPin, OUTPUT); • digitalWrite(weatherBoardPowerPin, HIGH);
Server • Server will receive data via XBee USB • ASP.NET server side code • Parse Data • Log Data? • Forecast? • Client Side • Retrieve and display data
