- PROJECT INFORMATION -
The display is connected to the internet via WIFI (ESP-WROOM-32UE board) and reads data from the web sites using ThingSpeak IoT links. The display is connected from an Arduino Mega 2560 board using a display shield. A RTC DS3231 board keeps the time and date current. The time and date are updated every day at 2am using the internet connection. Also, a touchscreen function is added to access more screens and display more internet data such as stock prices. Finally, a MP3 player is used to announce the time, weather forecast or anything that is displayed.
This has been a fun project so far, always wanted to capture data from the internet and display it. Using ThingSpeak IoT links are the way to go, easy set-up once you get the hang of it!
Info Display will show the following:
(Updates every 15 minutes)
- Current Time, Date.
- Weather forecast: Current temperatures and weather conditions.
- Stock Prices every 10 minutes.
(Updates every day 2am)
- Sunrise and Sunset times.
- Adjust time and date automatically via internet time server.
- Touchscreen.
- MP3 player.
