Server Room Temperature Monitor Kit v20
Server Room Temperature Monitor Kit with AI Natural Language Queries — Raspberry Pi 5 & ESP32
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Transform a Raspberry Pi 5 into your own AI-powered server room guardian. This kit equips you to build a wireless temperature and humidity monitoring network that logs sensor data to a local SSD and replies to plain English queries like “What was the maximum temperature yesterday?” — all powered by Ollama running a large language model locally, without any cloud dependency.
What You'll Build
You'll create a complete server room environmental monitor that uses two ESP32 nodes to read DHT22 and BMP280 sensors, pushing data to a central Raspberry Pi 5. The Pi runs a local Ollama LLM (loaded from the NVMe SSD) that can answer any natural language question about the historical sensor readings — ideal for understanding temperature trends or diagnosing anomalies in your own data centre or home lab.
What You'll Learn
- Setting up an ESP32 mesh network for multi-sensor data acquisition
- Storing time-series sensor data on NVMe SSD using InfluxDB or SQLite
- Running and fine-tuning a local LLM (Ollama) on a Raspberry Pi 5
- Building a natural language interface to query IoT sensor history in plain English

Why Buy This Kit Instead of Sourcing Parts Separately
| Factor | Sourcing Separately | Compoden Kit |
|---|---|---|
| Compatibility checks | You verify every part (ESP32 logic levels, DHT22 pull-ups, Pi 5 PCIe HAT) | Pre-tested as a system — sensors, boards, NVMe drive and software stack ready |
| Build support | Forums and scattered tutorials | AI companion trained on this exact project (Ollama LLM setup and sensor data pipeline) |
| Time to first working build | Days of debugging I²C, SPI, and LLM deployment | Hours, with step-by-step guidance for SSD mounting, sensor mesh, and AI query engine |
| Shipping coordination | Multiple sellers, multiple delays | One shipment from Bengaluru in 3-5 days |
Who This Kit Is For
This kit is ideal for B.Tech (ECE/EEE/CSE) students who want to go beyond basic IoT and add AI-powered analytics to sensor data. If you're participating in Smart India Hackathon or building a capstone project at IIT/NIT/VIT/BITS, the natural language query feature will make your project stand out. It's also perfect for CBSE Class 12 practicals exploring modern AI hardware integration.
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, tuned for this exact sensor-to-AI pipeline, will guide you step by step. If you still need human help, WhatsApp our support team — they respond within hours on business days.
Can I run Ollama offline once set up?
Yes, the LLM runs entirely on the Raspberry Pi 5. After you download your chosen model, the whole system operates without internet — perfect for secure server rooms.
What if the NVMe SSD doesn't fit or isn't recognised?
The kit includes the Pi 5 M.2 HAT+ and a pre-formatted 512GB SSD; our AI companion walks through installation and troubleshooting. A hardware fault qualifies for a free replacement within 7 days.
How many sensor nodes can I add?
The wireless mesh can be expanded to over 10 ESP32 nodes, and the Ollama query engine scales to handle all data points stored on the SSD. The AI companion includes guidance for adding extra DHT22 sensors.
Data Centre — Ollama LLM on Pi 5 answers natural language questions about sensor history — query your own home data in plain English.
