Smart Window Auto-Close Kit with Pico W - Environmental Dashboard
Smart Window Auto-Close Kit with Raspberry Pi Pico W - Build a Live Environmental Dashboard for Window Protection
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Imagine a sudden downpour while you're away. This kit puts real-time window-side data - temperature, humidity, air pressure, light levels, and rainfall - onto a web dashboard you can check from any device on your home network. It's the practical foundation for an automated window closer or simply a watchful environmental monitor. Every sensor is chosen to work out of the box with the Pico W, so you go from unboxing to a live dashboard in an afternoon.
What You'll Build
A compact sensor station that reads DHT22 (temperature/humidity), BMP280 (pressure), BH1750 (ambient light), and a rain sensor, then serves all live readings on a local web page. You'll see numbers update in real time, track trends, and decide when a window needs closing - no cloud account required, just your own Wi-Fi network.
What You'll Learn
- Interface I�C and analog sensors with the Raspberry Pi Pico W using MicroPython
- Set up a local web server that streams real-time environmental data to any browser
- Read and interpret sensor outputs to derive actionable window-state conditions
- Structure a responsive HTML dashboard that refreshes without page reload

Who This Kit Is For
If you're a CBSE Class 11-12 student building a physics or computer science investigatory project, or a B.Tech ECE/EEE sophomore looking for a graded IoT assignment, this kit fits. It's also ideal for ATL Tinkering Lab members and Smart India Hackathon teams that need a reliable sensor-to-dashboard prototype that works right after wiring. Even university clubs at IITs, NITs, VIT, or BITS can spin up a weather-aware window demo fast.
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 included AI companion walks you through troubleshooting, and our WhatsApp support line answers within hours - no dead-end forums.
Can I view the dashboard on my phone?
Yes, any device connected to the same Wi-Fi network can open the dashboard. The Pico W acts as a local web server, so no internet dependency.
Does this kit automatically close a window?
The project focuses on sensor data display and alerts; a physical window mechanism isn't included. The dashboard and code are ready to be extended with a motor or servo driver, and we provide guidance for that add-on.
Is soldering required?
No soldering - the breadboard and jumper wires let you plug in all sensors and test immediately. The circuit stays intact during the build.
Window Protection - Pico W reads DHT22, BMP280, BH1750 and rain sensor. Web dashboard on local network shows live readings.
