The Complete Beginners Guide to Arduino - 2021 - Temperature and Humidity Sensors - BME280

This video tutorial provides an in-depth look at the BME 280 sensor, highlighting its advantages over the DHT 11 sensor, including its ability to measure temperature, humidity, and air pressure. The tutorial explains the sensor's compatibility with I2C and SPI protocols and guides viewers through setting up the sensor with an Arduino. It also covers the installation of necessary libraries and demonstrates how to read and display sensor data, including temperature in Celsius and Fahrenheit, pressure in hectopascals, and altitude in meters.
