Our experiment's goals have changed greatly as it has been created. Our project focuses on maintaining a regulated temperature in a room. We developed this because Austin 3D prints objects, which require a specific temperature to be met in order for the object to be produced successfully without any defects. Based on his experience with 3D printing, the printer requires an atmosphere with less than 50% humidity and above 40–50 degrees Fahrenheit in order to produce high-quality prints.
In our project, the temperature and humidity are measured using the DHT11 2-in-1 sensor. The information is then sent to the cloud via the particle photon 2 so that the other photon 2 can register the data and display them on the LCD screen. You can use our project in any room that you're 3D printing to observe the LCD panel showing the humidity and temperature. Our project's other neat feature is that, should you leave the area, it can send you emails outlining those same values. Depending on your preferences, these values can be supplied at 30-minute intervals or simultaneously with the values displayed on the screen. There is also the ability to turn off the emails and just have the values shown on your computer or the LCD screen if you know you will be using your computer values or the LCD screen more. Places this device would be invaluable in is areas like a 3D printing farm that normally take their own room and have the possibility of being off site. If you have either just one printer or a whole room full of them and you strive for quality in your prints, then this device is for you.
