ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
We would like to express our gratitude to DR BODILE ROSHAN MUKINDRAO sir for
their guidance and support throughout the duration of this project. Special thanks to our team
members for their contributions and collaboration in making this project a success.
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this project was to develop a humidity and temperature detector using
Arduino Uno microcontroller, a 16x2 LCD display, an I2C module, a DHT11 sensor, and
jumper wires. The project aimed to create a simple and cost-effective solution for monitoring
environmental conditions in indoor settings. The Arduino Uno was chosen for its ease of
programming and wide availability, while the DHT11 sensor provided a convenient way to
measure humidity and temperature simultaneously.
PROJECT OVERVIEW
The project utilises an Arduino Uno microcontroller to process data from a DHT11 sensor
which measures humidity and temperature. The readings are displayed on a 16x2 LCD
screen, providing users with real-time information about environmental conditions.
COMPONENTS USED
1. Arduino Uno microcontroller board
6. Jumper wires
METHODOLOGY
1. Hardware Setup:
● The Arduino Uno was connected to the computer via the USB cable for programming
and power.
● The 16x2 LCD display was connected to the Arduino Uno using the I2C module to
reduce the number of pins required for connection.
● The DHT11 sensor was connected to the Arduino Uno using jumper wires, with one
wire for data, one for power, and one for ground.
2. Programming Details:
● Arduino IDE was used to write the code for the project.
● Libraries for the LCD display and DHT11 sensor were included in the code.
● The code reads data from the DHT11 sensor to measure humidity and temperature.
● The measured values were then displayed on the LCD display in real-time.
3. Testing:
● The system was tested to ensure that it was correctly reading and displaying humidity
and temperature values.

CIRCUIT DESIGN
RESULTS
The project successfully achieved its objective of creating a humidity and temperature
detector using Arduino Uno with an LCD display. The system was able to accurately measure
and display humidity and temperature values in real-time. The LCD display provided a clear
and user-friendly interface for viewing the data.
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, the project demonstrated the feasibility of using Arduino Uno and readily
available components to create a simple yet effective humidity and temperature detector. The
system could be further enhanced by adding features such as data logging, remote
monitoring, or alarms for specific thresholds. Overall, the project serves as a useful
foundation for future developments in environmental monitoring systems using Arduino-
based platforms.
