This project features a smart environmental monitoring system powered by an ESP8266 microcontroller and DHT11 sensor to track temperature and humidity. It collects and displays real-time data on a custom-designed webpage hosted via Wi-Fi.
The data is auto-refreshed every few seconds and color-coded based on safe or unsafe ranges. This makes it ideal for monitoring rooms, server racks, greenhouses, and remote weather stations.
The design uses HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for the web interface and the Arduino IDE for the firmware.
It includes a simple REST API interface for data retrieval, allowing other systems or mobile apps to integrate easily.
The hardware is low-power and uses micro-USB or battery input, making it great for portable or solar-powered setups.
The dashboard is hosted directly on the ESP8266 and loads instantly without needing any cloud support.
This project demonstrates my ability to integrate sensors, handle real-time web communication, and build embedded UIs.
Future upgrades include air quality sensing (MQ135), CO2 monitoring, cloud logging, and mobile alerts.
