Baby Room Comfort Monitor Kit with Raspberry Pi 4 + DHT22
Raspberry Pi Baby Room Comfort Monitor — Build a Complete Infant Environmental Dashboard with InfluxDB & Grafana
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Keep track of your baby’s nursery environment with real-time temperature and humidity trends. This kit transforms a Raspberry Pi 4 into a data-logging server running InfluxDB and Grafana inside Docker containers, capturing precise readings from DHT22 sensors every minute. Within hours, you’ll have beautiful, long-term charts accessible from any device on your home network, helping you maintain the perfect comfort zone for infant sleep.
What You'll Build
Two DHT22 sensors placed in the nursery monitor ambient conditions, feeding data to a Pi-hosted InfluxDB time-series database. Grafana pulls that data to create interactive dashboards with temperature trends, humidity history, and alerts for out-of-range readings. The result is a reliable, private monitoring system that gives you actionable insights into the room’s microclimate — without sharing any data to a cloud service.
What You'll Learn
- Set up Docker containers on Raspberry Pi and deploy InfluxDB with Grafana for time-series data storage and visualization
- Interface multiple DHT22 digital sensors via GPIO and read temperature/humidity with Python
- Design Grafana dashboards with custom panels, time ranges, and alert thresholds for real‑time monitoring
- Build a complete IoT pipeline — from sensor data ingestion to database persistence to beautiful analytics — without relying on cloud services

Who This Kit Is For
This kit suits CBSE Class 11–12 students building IoT science exhibitions, B.Tech ECE/EEE students prototyping sensor networks, and ATL Tinkering Lab mentors looking for a guided data‑logging project. It’s also an excellent fit for Smart India Hackathon teams needing a private, containerized monitoring stack, and for IIT/NIT/VIT/BITS students exploring real‑world embedded systems.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
The AI companion provides step‑by‑step troubleshooting, and you can send a WhatsApp message for human backup during Indian business hours.
Can I view the dashboard from my phone when I'm not at home?
Grafana is web‑based; initially it works on your home network. For remote access, the guide covers a secure Tailscale tunnel — no complex port forwarding required.
Do I need internet access for the monitor to work?
The sensors, database, and dashboard run fully locally on the Pi. Internet is only needed for initial Docker image pulls and if you enable optional remote dashboard viewing.
How accurate are the DHT22 sensors for infant rooms?
DHT22 provides ±0.5°C temperature and ±2% RH humidity accuracy, sufficient to detect uncomfortable swings. Two sensors let you compare readings at crib height and near the window.
Infant Care — Pi 4 runs InfluxDB and Grafana in Docker. DHT22 data pushed every minute creates beautiful long-term trend charts.
