  • In this Arduino Project video we are going to build this lovely Arduino thermometer with a unique art deco style.
    The design of this thermometer is fantastic in my opinion. It is based on the design of a commercial thermometer that was designed 100 years ago. I made some changes to the design in order to fit inside modern electronics, a photoresistor to detect darkness, some LEDs to illuminate at night, and of course an Arduino as the brains of the thermometer. I 3D printed the enclosure using wood filament. As you can see, the project is reporting the temperature, and in my opinion, it looks great. I love vintage objects and I very excited now that I can make my own using my 3D printer! Let's see how to build this project!

    As usual, great project and very well narrated. The pace at which you narrate the project is simply great; east to digest. Thanks for sharing.

    Hello,
    I have a few of your videos seen and must say very nice!
    RC model(making), electronics( rx/tx ), Arduino and 3D printing are also hobbies of mine.
    a lot of success with the projects and friendly greetings from The Netherlands!
    Rob.

    Nice!
    It might be interesting to add more LEDs for color temperature.
    Blue - cool.
    Green - just right.
    Yellow - warmth.
    Red - Hell

    Hello dear Nick, I have made the thermometer project and it works great. Only printing was a problem. How did you set up the printer. I also tried to print it like in the Youtbe movie, but the front wasn't printed nicely.

  • @MathiasBacher
    @MathiasBacher Před 3 lety

    I love this project! You should also look up the Digispark board, it's pretty much like a 1 € coin sized Arduino and with that you could have made the thermometer even smaller and safe some filament and money 😉

  • @HermesValenciano
    @HermesValenciano Před 7 lety

    I really liked this one. But you didn't talk about the power source you've used. Batteries, cable to the wall...? Thanks!!

  • @holetoanotheruniverse4690

    You can use Aceton to improve your prints and make the surface even smother!

  • @KLarsen00
    @KLarsen00 Před 7 lety +1

    Very nice! I intend to build something similar, but I'll probably use mahogany for the casing. One question though, doesn't the thermometer read higher when it's enclosed like that?

    • @Educ8s
      @Educ8s  Před 7 lety +1

      Thank you! At the back of the enclosure I have created two openings and I have placed the temperature sensor close to them. From my experience, the temperature I get is very accurate!

    • @Educ8s
      @Educ8s  Před 7 lety

      Can you please describe how are you going to carve the mahogany in order to achieve this result? I would love to build an enclosure like this using real wood.

    • @KLarsen00
      @KLarsen00 Před 7 lety

      educ8s.tv I was thinking of cutting the front, back and sides from say 3mm sheets, and bending a very thin sheet for the top. I can't say I have much experience with it, though, although I have done some wood working before. If I manage to do it, I'll document it on my blog (there's a link on my channel). It might be some time before I get around to it, though.
      BTW great channel you have!

    • @KLarsen00
      @KLarsen00 Před 7 lety

      educ8s.tv Forgot to add, for the relief design you can laminate the wood sheets.

  • @sylvainlazare1114
    @sylvainlazare1114 Před 7 lety

    Hi, I like it very much congrat it's a nice creation. What about carved real wood to make it more authentic? also did you consider energy budgeting for this kind of thermometer which is consuming even if you don't look at it?

    • @Educ8s
      @Educ8s  Před 7 lety

      You are right! I would love to make it using real wood! I will try it when I get a CNC machine. The code is not optimized for power consumption. We could disable the panel meter when it is night as well in order to reduce the power consumption or we could use other tricks.

  • @iceberg789
    @iceberg789 Před 7 lety +1

    like the yellow backlight, so elegant.
    but a darker polish and smooth edges would have looked better on the case.

    • @Educ8s
      @Educ8s  Před 7 lety

      Thank you very much for your feedback! I will try it next time! Cheers!

      Yes, we can use this sensor for many things! It looks great and it is so easy to use!

  • @giorgosstolis3322

    Hello Nick,I know about your 3D printer ,can you please tell me which printing program you use ? I have tried to print the Art Deco project but only the " Back " prints properly ,I use REPETIER.Thank you.

    • @Educ8s
      @Educ8s  Před 7 lety

      Hello! I use Simplify3D for my prints lately. Have in mind that the remaining two pieces need support material in order to print correctly. Also, the "Front" piece must be printed with the face on the heat bed. The "Base" piece must be printed upside down in order to use less support material.

  • @DogRox
    @DogRox Před 7 lety

    Wow that is a lot bigger than what it looks like in the picture by itself! But I still like it!! :-) I have a question, if you put the light sensor code as an interrupt routine couldn't that help to conserve battery or power consumption?

    • @Educ8s
      @Educ8s  Před 7 lety +1

      The light sensor is an analog sensor. We can't use it alone to trigger an interrupt, because interrupts need a digital value change to trigger.

    • @Diamonddrake
      @Diamonddrake Před 7 lety +1

      You could use an opamp to turn it into an digital signal, though the power savings aren't worth it. you're better off using a smaller micro controller like an attiny45, since this project only uses 3 pins.

    Hello Nick , just a line on your earlier video about the 3.5" TFT ILI9327 display from bangood. I could not get it working and I read that some others were having a similar problem. I found that if you add this line in setup your example works fine. add:- pinMode(A0,INPUT_PULLUP); Love your videos ,keep them coming!!

  • @giorgosstolis3322
    @giorgosstolis3322 Před 7 lety

    Hi Nick ,Thank you for the guide lines. I also bought the Simplify3D hoping to print the ArtDeco,but disaster ! As it is difficult to describe the problem ,I am asking if I could possibly send a photo and how ?Rgds

    • @Educ8s
      @Educ8s  Před 7 lety

      I am sorry to hear that, post the photo on the facebook page of the channel

  • @AllanHjberg
    @AllanHjberg Před 7 lety +2

    Is it batteri powered, or does it need to be connectet via the USB ?

    • @Educ8s
      @Educ8s  Před 7 lety +6

      I power it from a USB power supply. The power consumption is very low, 2-3mA so it can work on batteries as well. If we replace the Arduino Nano with an Arduino Pro Mini, we can have this project running on batteries for over 6 months!

    I use a jig saw to cut plexiglass. New plexiglass comes with a protective paper coat. Draw your diagram on it. Take your time and do not rush. Plexiglass less than 1/8 inch cracks easily. Avoid it.

      Γεια σου φίλε. Χρησιμοποιώ τον Wanhao Duplicator i3 v2.1. Για τα χρήματα που ζητά είναι ένας αξιόλογος εκτυπωτής που σου επιτρέπει να εκτυπώσεις σε όλα τα υλικά. Τον προτείνω ανεπιφύλακτα.

    Hey nick we are building one of your project "Arduino wireless weather station". In this project we are getting a mirror effect problem on our display.All the text and the temperature are mirrored. Can you tell me the solution for this problem???

    • @Educ8s
      @Educ8s  Před 7 lety

      Probably, there is something wrong with the driver you are using for the display.

    • @pushkarkaswankar5236
      @pushkarkaswankar5236 Před 7 lety

      educ8s.tv So probably which drives should we use to solve the problem because we have used the drivers that you have specified in your video.
