Abstract

Temperaturemonitoringisusedindifferentapplicationsaroundtheworldinindustriessuch
as the plastic industries, automotive industries, medicine, and food processing. Adding
flexibilityandcosteffectivenesstotheregulartemperaturemonitoringdevicescanexpand
the applications and provide more security to the production and processes for the
industries. Digital temperature sensors provide more accuracy and a wider temperature
detectionspectrum;addingtheflexibilityofremotemonitoringanddatastorage,amore
robusttemperaturemonitoringsystemcanbebuilt.Inthisthesiswork,anArduinodevice
and a digital temperature sensor are used to build a physical temperature monitoring
system. Arduino IDE and Processing are used due to their flexibility in terms of their
operating system, IDE, and cost effectiveness, to program and configure the system. To
tackle the problem of common bad practices used around programming Arduino devices
andotheropensourcedevices,bestpracticeswithinprogrammingandbuildingthephysical
systemareillustrated.
