Circuit Documentation

Summary

This circuit is designed to collect environmental data using various sensors and control actuators such as fans and servos. The central controller is an Arduino UNO, which interfaces with multiple sensors and actuators. The sensors include a DHT11 for temperature and humidity, an MQ-2 for gas detection, and PMS5003 and ZH03B for particulate matter detection. The actuators include fans and micro servos. A 4-channel relay module is used to control the fans.

Documented Code

/**
 * This example demonstrates how to collect temperature and humidity measurements
 * from the Adafruit DHT11 sensor. Measurements are printed out to the serial monitor.
 *
 * - Make sure to first install the following libraries through the Arduino Library Manager:
 *   - DHT Sensor Library (by Adafruit)
 *   - Adafruit Unified Sensor (by Adafruit)
 * - When you open the serial monitor to view measurements from the DHT11, make sure
 * that you select 9600 baud so that the serial monitor can receive data from the Arduino.
 *
 * This example was originally written by Adafruit Industries LLC.
