Pi Pico W Weather Station Dashboard
Pi Pico W Weather Station Dashboard: Monitor Temperature, Humidity, Pressure, Light & Rain Live on Your Browser
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Turn your Raspberry Pi Pico W into a self-contained environmental monitor that streams real-time data from four high-accuracy sensors to a locally hosted web dashboard. Whether you're tracking classroom microclimate, prototyping a Smart India Hackathon idea, or building a CBSE Class 12 physics investigatory project, this kit hands you everything required to deploy a professional-grade weather station—no soldering, no cloud subscriptions.
What You'll Build
A weather dashboard accessible from any device on your Wi-Fi network. The Pico W reads temperature and humidity (DHT22), barometric pressure (BMP280), ambient light (BH1750), and rainfall levels, then serves an interactive webpage with live gauges, rain alerts, and historical charts. Because the entire stack runs on the Pico W itself, your data stays private and the dashboard works even without an internet connection.
What You'll Learn
- Program the Pico W in MicroPython to poll I2C and digital sensors simultaneously
- Build a responsive web server that serves HTML, CSS, and JavaScript directly from a microcontroller
- Visualize environmental data in real time using live-updating gauges and time-series charts
- Structure a standalone IoT device that requires no external backend or cloud service

Who This Kit Is For
The project sits at the sweet spot for CBSE Class 12 physics and informatics practices students who need a working demonstrator, B.Tech ECE/EEE first-year mini-projects, ATL Tinkering Lab mentors looking for an intermediate IoT build, and Smart India Hackathon teams prototyping environmental sensing solutions. Hobbyists who have tinkered with Arduino and want to step up to a Raspberry Pi Pico W with a real web dashboard will also find it perfectly pitched.
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?
Scan the QR code inside the box to activate your AI build companion, which guides you through every wiring step and code upload. You can also message us on WhatsApp for direct troubleshooting assistance.
Do I need an internet connection to view the weather dashboard?
No. The Pico W creates its own web server on your local Wi-Fi network, so any smartphone, tablet, or laptop connected to the same router can open the dashboard—no external internet required after the initial code setup.
Can I expand the kit with additional sensors later?
Absolutely. The breadboard has free rows and the Pico W’s I2C bus can daisy-chain multiple devices. The AI companion includes notes on how to add a soil moisture sensor or UV index sensor if you want to extend the station.
Is this suitable for my CBSE Class 12 physics investigatory project?
Yes. The kit produces a tangible working model that demonstrates data acquisition, sensor physics, and IoT concepts—strong elements for a physics or computer science investigatory project. The local web dashboard also makes viva demonstrations easy.
Pico W reads DHT22, BMP280, BH1750 and rain sensor. Web dashboard on local network shows live readings.
