Summary

In this chapter, you have worked through two simple projects that showed you how to connect analog and digital temperature sensors to your Arduino. The projects showed you the basics of reading data from each sensor and displaying it in the serial monitor. Once you know how to do that, it’s a relatively easy step to get that data displayed on an LCD or LED dot matrix display.

Knowing how to obtain temperature readings from sensors opens up a whole new range of projects to the Arduino enthusiast. You will revisit temperature sensors later in the book when they are put to practical use in Chapter 17.
