Mood lamp with a digital RGB LED Strip (WS2811/WS2812), an Arduino, acrylic glass and a few parts from the hardware store

Today, we build us an animated and programmable mood lamp that can be nicely used as a functional decoration. This tutorial is understood only as a suggestion, especially the design of course is always in the eye of the beholder.

Sensors: Temperature & humidity measurements with the DHT11

Sensors, like the DHT11, are virtually the senses in the world of microcontrollers. With them you can observe, for example, environmental influences, and possibly respond. In this case we deal with the temperature and humidity measurement and therefore we have almost a small weather station.
