This project aimed towards developing a weatherstation that pushes its measurements into a centralized database, from where the data could be pulled by any other device for further processing, e.g. a plant watering system.
The pushing and fulling functionality was implemented using a REST API. The weatherstation itself was built with an ESP8266 microcontroller due to its low power consumption and WiFi capabilities.
With the project, I've participated at the "Jugend forscht" contest in February 2020 and won the second place in the category "Mathematics and Computer Science". A first place was not awarded.
