Summary

In this chapter, we saw how to perform a basic task with the Raspberry Pi Zero board: measuring data. We saw how to measure data from a digital sensor, and then store this data, access it remotely, and finally even plot the data on a graph.

You can of course already use what you learned in this project and adapt it to your own projects. You can, for example, have the project measure from more sensors at the same time, for example, from a barometric pressure sensor or from a light-level sensor.

In the next chapter, we are going to apply what we have learned in this chapter to build another project with the Pi Zero: building your own home thermostat.
