Summary
This interactive, STEM-focused weather station engages K–12 students through real-time environmental data and hands-on learning. It measures temperature, humidity, and air pressure using sensors connected to a Microchip PIC microcontroller, which manages communication across all subsystems. An ESP32-S3 module transmits the data to an MQTT server, updating a live website accessible from any device. Designed to be energy-efficient, modular, and user-friendly, the station supports key meteorological concepts and aligns with educational standards. The project combines embedded systems with environmental awareness to inspire curiosity in both weather science and technology while encouraging student growth in engineering and problem-solving.
