It s a great way to learn how to code whilst also makin.
Digital water pressure sensor raspberry pi.
A true micro controller is e g.
In particular i ll be using a water level detection sensor and a 200 psi pressure sensor.
If you are familiar with the camjam edukits then you will already be familiar with a few sensors like the 1 wire temperature sensor a light dependent resistor and movement with the passive infrared pir sensor in this tutorial we are going to learn how to sense the outside world using a set of digital sensors on the tiny bmp180 board.
The arduino can also be operated very easily on and with the raspberry pi e g.
You can sense almost anything with the large range of sensors we stock here at the pi hut.
It can for example also read analog sensors.
This tutorial demonstrates how to connect an analog sensor to a raspberry pi as well as i will deploy the project of water pressure and water level system using the raspberry pi.
Sensors add almost human sensing capabilities to your projects taking real world events and converting them to analogue or digital signals for your microcontroller to read.
How to determine the temperature and humidity with sensors has already been shown in previous tutorials.
The raspberry pi can also be used as a micro controller but it has a lot more functions because it runs an operating system.
With the help of the barometer bmp180 the air pressure in hpa bar can be determined via the i c bus of the raspberry pi.
Via usb or 433 mhz or 2 4 ghz radio.
Unlike arduinos the raspberry pi doesn t have an adc which stands for analog to digital converter.
For weather stations and similar projects it is often important to determine the air pressure.
Water pressure sensor for raspberry pi juli 26 2016 gkoper 4 reacties a pressure sensor is a necessary part of any pressurized liquid system such as a solar boiler the central heating system in a house and even a car.
