Design And Construction Of A Digital Thermometer Using Arduino And LM35 Temperature Sensor

Overview

Thermometers are useful apparatus being used since long time for temperature measurement. In this project an Arduino based digital thermometer to display the current ambient temperature and temperature changes on a LCD unit in real time was made. It can be deployed in houses, offices, industries etc. to measure the temperature. This project is based on Arduino which communicates here with LM35 temperature sensor and a 16×2 display unit. We can divide this arduino based thermometer into three sections – The first senses the temperature by using temperature sensor LM 35, second section converts the temperature value into a suitable numbers in Celsius scale which is done by Arduino, and last part of system displays temperature on LCD.

Research Guidelines

The Title Page should be the first section of your project “Design And Construction Of A Digital Thermometer Using Arduino And LM35 Temperature Sensor”, providing essential details like the project title, your name, your supervisor’s name, the institution, and the submission date. After that, the Abstract offers a brief summary of your project, touching on its purpose, methods, results, and conclusions in 150-300 words. The Acknowledgments section is where you can thank those who supported your research, such as your supervisor, peers, or organizations that provided resources.

Next, the Table of Contents organizes the Design And Construction Of A Digital Thermometer Using Arduino And LM35 Temperature Sensor by listing its chapters and sections, along with page numbers for easy reference. The List of Figures and List of Tables help guide readers to specific visual elements like graphs, charts, or tables included in the document. There should also be an Abbreviations and Glossary section to explain any specialized terms or acronyms, making the content clearer to readers unfamiliar with the technical language.

The main body of the Design And Construction Of A Digital Thermometer Using Arduino And LM35 Temperature Sensor should start with the Introduction, which provides background information, outlines the research problem, states your objectives, and gives a brief overview of your research methods. Following that, the Literature Review offers an in-depth look at previous research relevant to your project, identifying gaps your study aims to address. The Methodology section then explains the research design, tools, and data collection methods you used to conduct the project and analyze the data.

In the Results and Discussion section, you present your findings and discuss them in relation to the Design And Construction Of A Digital Thermometer Using Arduino And LM35 Temperature Sensor research questions or objectives, often using tables or charts to help explain the data. The Conclusion summarizes the key results, discusses their implications, and suggests possible directions for future research. You may also include recommendations based on your findings, offering practical advice for improvements or applications. Finally, the Design And Construction Of A Digital Thermometer Using Arduino And LM35 Temperature Sensor project should include a References or Bibliography section to list all the sources you cited, as well as Appendices for any additional material. A Statement of Originality is often included to confirm the authenticity of your work
