I used an LCD shield to display the current temperature and speed of the fan, but you can use the circuit without the LCD display. You also need to select the transistor by the type of fan that you ...

It is described as an “open platform” that can collect temperature from multiple sensors, apply programmable control logic, and drive different loads with a precise PID algorithm. It is built around a ...

This video demonstrates how to set up a remote temperature monitoring system using an Arduino Uno R4 WiFi, an LM35 temperature sensor, and the MQTT protocol. The system captures ambient temperature ...

After the temperature sensors detect deviance from the set point, or upon SMS instruction, the Freeduino will crank up the heat through a 5V relay attached to the home’s boiler.

You'll need an Arduino along with a bunch of various sensors to get the project rolling, and once it's all set up you'll have a simple, but cheap system to monitor your home.
