Documented Code

No code was provided for the microcontrollers in the circuit. To fully utilize the hardware, embedded code should be written and uploaded to the Arduino Uno R3. The code would typically initialize the sensors, read data from them, control the output devices, and handle communication with the micro SD card module for data logging. It would also include libraries for interfacing with the I2C LCD screen and managing the file system on the SD card.
