In the 2024 ASP edition, the IoT workshop has been extended to 2 1/2 days and we have a few new devices. First of all, we now have real sensors which measure air temperature, relative humidity and the barometric pressure. This will allow us to create a simplistic weather station.

Often it is desirable to have a local display to show results without having to transfer data to a remote machine. A cheap monochrome OLED (Organic LED) display is available for the WeMos D1 mini bus but its resolution of 64x46 pixels is a bit too limited.
It is however easily possible to put an OLED with 128x64 pixels onto a prototype board, which I did for this workshop.

Also the actuators have been extended with a small stepping motor and its driver board and there are exercises to make the motor move forward and backwards in different modes and speeds.
