Description

SensorMonitor is a system designed to monitor PC hardware parameters. Information is acquired through OpenHardwareMonitor and LibreHardwareMonitor, already included via their respective DLLs, and transmitted via USB (COM port) to an Arduino, which displays it on a 20x4 LCD screen.

Features

• Real-time monitoring of PC hardware parameters.
• Display on a 20x4 LCD screen.
• Communication via USB (COM port) with Arduino.

Hardware Requirements

• Arduino.
• 20x4 LCD display.
• I2C module for the display.

Installation and Configuration

1. Prepare the hardware: Connect Arduino and the 20x4 LCD display with the I2C module.
2. Upload the firmware to Arduino using the Arduino IDE with the required libraries.
3. Run the Windows software, which includes the OpenHardwareMonitor and LibreHardwareMonitor DLLs with no installation required (It takes a few seconds to start, it shows no signs of life, it's normal because it's scanning the system).
4. In the program, select the component to monitor, you can choose up to two sensors. For each sensor, you can set the preferred unit of measurement.

Libraries Used

• For Arduino: Wire.h, LiquidCrystal_I2C.h
