    Weather Monitoring System

                      The DHT11 sensor is a small device that measures temperature and humidity in the
                      air. It’s often used in weather stations, smart homes, and even in classrooms to help
                      us understand the environment around us.

                      How Does It Work?

                      Temperature Measurement: The DHT11 can tell us how hot or cold it is. It has a special part
                      that senses the temperature and sends that information to a computer or microcontroller (like an
                      Arduino).
                      Humidity Measurement: Humidity is the amount of water vapor in the air. The DHT11 can also
                      measure how much moisture is in the air, helping us know if it’s dry or humid.

                      Data Output: The sensor sends the temperature and humidity data as numbers. This data can be
                      displayed on a screen or used in other devices to take action, like turning on a fan when it gets too
                      hot.

                      What is an OLED Display?

                      An OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) display is a special type of screen used in
                      devices like smartphones, TVs, and smartwatches. It’s known for showing bright and
                      colorful images while using less power than traditional screens.

                      Overview

                      The objective of this activity is to teach students how to monitor temperature and humidity using
                      programming and Tinker Orbits Kit components, fostering their understanding of sensor interfacing
                      and data visualization.

                      Objective

                        How does an OLED work.

                        The working of temperature and humidity sensor work in different climate.
