Bluetooth Low Energy Wireless Thermometer
remote temperature display on your smartphone
This outdoor thermometer in a waterproof case uses Bluetooth Low Energy 4.0 (BLE) to communicate with a modern touch-screen phone: iPhone 4S (or later), Android 4.3 (or later), by means of a self-contained BL600-SA module designed by Laird. There are no (other) active components, everything is in the mini-module which is programmed in… BASIC!
Materials
Components
The BOM (Bill of Materials) is the technically exhaustive listing of parts and other hardware items used to produce the working and tested prototype of any Elektor Labs project. The BOM file contains deeper information than the Component List published for the same project in Elektor Magazine. If required the BOM gets updated directly by our lab engineers. As a reader, you can download the list here.
