Home Monitoring With Wireless Sensor Nodes

Do you want to build an IoT-enabled home monitoring system that can measure environmental parameters and also detect intrusion but don’t know where to start? This easy tutorial will deliver everything you need with only two major components: a Raspberry Pi and a Sparrow Wireless Sensor Node kit. No soldering, and minimal wiring needed! With this system, you will be able to remotely monitor and log temperature, humidity, pressure, luminosity, IR and UV indexes and also detect intrusion. The system is also extensible, you will be able to add multiple wireless sensors to your home, monitoring every room in your house or outdoor parameters. For this project you will need a RaspberryPi, two Sparrow Wireless Sensor Nodes and two Sparrow Nest programming boards. Also, if you want intrusion detection to work, you will need a PIR sensor.”
