Virtual Booth

This project aims to develop a portable and intelligent weather station. The system is designed and simulated using Proteus, followed by the implementation of an IoT-based platform for real-time data acquisition and visualisation through a public web dashboard. The performance and accuracy of the weather station are then evaluated by validating key parameters, including temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, rainfall, and wind speed. The project scope includes the design and simulation of electronic circuits, as well as microcontroller programming using NodeMCU ESP8266 with IoT communication protocols. Hardware integration involves sensors such as the DHT22 and BMP280, powered by a sustainable 5 V DC system incorporating a solar panel and a rechargeable lithium-ion battery. The results demonstrate stable and reliable performance of the developed weather station. The recorded temperature ranged from 26 to 34°C, while relative humidity varied between 60% and 90%, reflecting normal environmental conditions. Atmospheric pressure remained consistent, ranging from 1005 to 1015 hPa. The rain detector consistently recorded values below 800, indicating dry conditions with no rainfall during the observed period, and wind speed varied from 0 m/s under calm conditions to approximately 2-5 m/s during peak periods. Overall, these results confirm the accuracy and suitability of the system for real-time weather monitoring. Finally, the system undergoes rigorous testing and calibration to ensure reliability, portability, and power efficiency in various environmental conditions.
