Home Comfort Monitor

Context: Is your room comfortable? Too hot, cold, or humid? Build a Home Comfort Monitor that can tell you the temperature and humidity and give simple advice. This could help in a real scenario like keeping a baby’s room conditions healthy, or just learning about weather.

Task: Use a temperature and humidity sensor with your Junkbot Core (if you have a combined sensor, great). Program the device to read these values. Display the readings on the LED matrix in a simple way (for example, scrolling “27°C, 60%RH”). Additionally, include a simple indicator: perhaps a green light or smiley when conditions are in a comfy range (e.g., 20–25°C and not too humid), or a blue sad face if it’s too cold, or red if too hot.

Expected Output: A mini weather station that shows real-time temperature and humidity and signals comfort level. For instance, at 22°C and moderate humidity, it might show “22°C ”. If you breathe warm air on the sensor or take it outdoors on a hot day, it might scroll “35°C ” with a hot-face emoji, indicating it’s quite hot. This mission ties real-world environmental data to everyday decision-making like when to turn on a fan or humidifier.
