In this project, we will be using NodeMCU ESP8266, DHT11 Sensor and ThinkSpeak Server with a WiFi connection. Introduction to Resources: NodeMCU ESP8266: NodeMCU is an open-source LUA language-based firmware developed for ESP8266 wifi chip, although many students make the mistake of thinking the ESP8266 to be the entire chip name whereas it is just the WiFi module. By exploring functionality with ESP8266 chip, NodeMCU firmware comes with ESP8266 Development board/kit i.e. NodeMCU Development board. NodeMCU Dev Kit/board consist of ESP8266 wifi enabled chip. The  ESP8266  is a low-cost WiFi chip developed by Espressif Systems with TCP/IP protocol. Here fo this project I've used Version2 (V2) NodeMCU Dev Kit i.e. NodeMCU Development Board v1.0 (Version2) , although there isn't much significant change from its predecessors. I've used Arduino IDE if you want you may use ESPlorer IDE also. The primary difference between them is a programming language difference we

Since the time when Google Assistant was launched, I was intrigued by the thought that a machine would be able to talk to us. But that was a long time back, now when we use it quite often I thought why not make one of them. Firstly I wasn't so talented to make a talking assistant of my own, so had to use the Actions on Google to make it happen. What is an Action? In the simplest terms, an Action defines support for a user request (represented as an intent) and the corresponding fulfillment that can carry out the request. You can build Actions that fulfill requests with web content, Android apps, or with experiences built specifically for the Assistant.  So I visited the Actions on Google page. Then see the "Get Started" button I clicked it. I was redirected to the Documentation Page . There it was written all kinds of ways to get started. Being a lazy person, although I got through the whole documentation, I decided to start off with the templates, b

Hello guys! I wanted to share with you people that finally my school life has come to an end. It’s just a few more days that we will be visiting our school for examinations and we’ve already got our farewell party. Farewell is something which makes you happy but at some point, you’ll realize that the innocent and precious years of your life has already gone. I still remember when arguments were about the topic of who my best friend is. Yes, now I do find it very funny, but at that time it was just a bit less than domestic violence or some other serious issues. Now since I’ve been raised in a boys-school, there were frequent conflict between the seniors and juniors which was ultimately decided by fights. Stealing rasgulla ( sweet for Bengali ) from other's tiffin had become our secret mission, and later for others finding out who the culprit was, became the James Bond mystery to be solved. Somehow those moments which seemed painful and harsh have become memories now. It was s

This being my first blogging experience, its a typical feeling. Being an introvert can be so ridiculous that you don't get to express your feelings to the people you get to interact. So I decided that when it was hard for me to express my feelings with my speech, then I should try out blogging. In this way I get to interact with people and share my feelings.               Happy to get down here and share my feelings with you. Keep checking my blog 'cause I'll be sharing my experiences here.              Thank You...                                                                                                                                            -Swapnanil
