Server Room Temperature Monitor Kit with ESP32 + DHT22 v9
Build a Server Room Temperature Monitor with ESP32-C6, DHT22, and Matter
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Create a fully functional server room temperature sensor that integrates seamlessly with your smart home ecosystem. Using the ESP32-C6's native Thread radio, this kit connects as a Matter device, letting you monitor temperature and humidity on your Apple Home or Google Home app, receive alerts, and ensure your servers stay cool. It’s a no-solder project you can assemble on a breadboard in just a few hours.
What You'll Build
A compact temperature and humidity monitor that displays readings on an OLED screen and reports data wirelessly to smart home platforms. The DHT22 sensor captures temperature and humidity, the ESP32-C6 joins a Matter network over Thread, and you can view historical data and set automation triggers in Apple Home or Google Home. No soldering required, everything plugs into a breadboard.
What You'll Learn
- How to interface a DHT22 digital sensor with an ESP32 microcontroller and read temperature and humidity data programmatically.
- How to connect an I2C OLED display to show real-time sensor readings.
- The fundamentals of Matter and Thread protocols for smart home interoperability and how to commission an ESP32-C6 device onto a Matter fabric.
- How to prototype sensor systems on a breadboard and integrate them with cloud-connected platforms like Apple Home and Google Home for remote monitoring.

Who This Kit Is For
Perfect for school students exploring IoT under ATL Tinkering Labs, CBSE Class 11-12 hobby projects, and young innovators interested in smart home automation. Even B.Tech ECE students can use this to learn Matter protocol basics quickly. The kit is also suitable for parents who want a safe, no-solder electronics project with their children.
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 to access the AI companion, which provides step-by-step debugging. You can also message us on WhatsApp for direct help.
Do I need a Thread border router for Matter integration?
Yes, you need a Thread border router such as Apple HomePod mini, Google Nest Hub (2nd gen), or a compatible Echo device. The AI companion will walk you through commissioning.
Can I use this kit with Amazon Alexa?
Matter supports Alexa with a compatible Echo device. After adding the sensor to your Matter fabric, it will appear in the Alexa app for temperature monitoring and routines.
Is this suitable for monitoring a real server room 24/7?
The DHT22 sensor measures temperatures from -40°C to 80°C with ±0.5°C accuracy, which is adequate for ambient monitoring. For production environments, consider redundancy. The kit teaches the fundamentals, and you can later upgrade to industrial sensors.
Data Centre — ESP32-C6 Thread node joins Matter network and exposes a temperature sensor to Apple Home and Google.
