24 Hour Temperature Test

For this project, we were tasked with collecting data for 24 hours using an ESP32 board and any sensors we desired. I chose to collect the temperature (°C) of my dorm room, in Cauthorn Hall, as I was interested in just how warm these buildings get. I opted to use an LM75A sensor, which I soldered together in the DAMLab Makerspace. Using the Arduino IDE I programmed the board to collect the room's temperature every second, using a rolling average to calculate the average over ten-minute periods. Then I left it running for 24 hours to collect the data, which was processed and reviewed in the video below.
