Connected Weighing scale using HX711 and ESP8266

HX711 and ESP8266

Since I got into Home Automation System, I have always wanted a central system with as much as information about me starting from my food habit to each and everything that can be measured or collected. You can say that it is greatly influenced by JARVIS of Iron Man which came around my Engineering days. Coming to the topic, I recently managed to connect a regular bathroom weighing scale to my Home Automation System (OpenHAB) using MQTT. So basically this post is all about how to do that. For the weighing…

IOT: Power outlet controlled from internet using WeMOS

Bikash Narayan Panda
IOT Based Power Outlet

This is a simple project to make IOT enabled power outlet. This video is around WeMOS and demonstrates how to use WeMOS with thingspeak to control some loads in my home. This project lets you control your devices which you need to connect to the output sockets. As an online server, I have used Thinspeak.com but you can use any server but you just need REST API. Check out the video to get started. Bikash Narayan PandaDeveloper, Tinkere, a proud Dad.. love to spend my available time playing with Tech!!…

IOT With Raspberry Pi using JAVA

IOT_Pi

This post features videos that I published to my YouTube channel in the series “IOT with Raspberry Pi “. This basically contains 4 videos around raspberry pi that show how to use Raspberry Pi as an IOT device. It starts from interfacing sensor to publishing the sensor data to cloud server using protocols like REST or MQTT. For the entire project I have used JAVA and on top of that used various libraries for specific tasks like Pi4J, Unirest, Eclipse PAHO etc (Links provided below). If you have watched any of the videos you…

DHT12 Interfacing with Raspberry Pi using Pi4J

Bikash Narayan Panda
DHT12

This video around raspberry pi showing how to interface DHT12 humidity and temperature sensor with raspberry pi by using JAVA nad Pi4j. DHT12 its a temperature sensor with a 1-Wire and I2C interface to connect with external controllers and having 1-Wire interface makes it compatible with the older DHT11 sensor but with a higher accuracy. For this tutorial, we are going to use the I2C interface of the sensor and to interact with it, we will be using JAVA. One issue with the DHT12 I2C interface is that the device…
