| Dec 4, 2016 at 6:27 | comment | added | dancingBear | dhimaspw, I have done some checking, and the ESP8266 may work very well. I will need something with a dependable wireless range of approx 60 meters. Are you familiar enough with the devices to know if this will work? The information I will be gathering won't change so quickly that it needs to be sent several times a minute, but perhaps every half hour. I might even be able to connect a chip to the sensor array to record the data, and then do a manual call the recorded data? Thanks for your interest and suggestion. Also, I have a few of the larger ESP8266 boards. | |

| Nov 20, 2016 at 20:54 | comment | added | dancingBear | I am really flexible on this, and open to any suggestions. I have worked with computers a long while, but "this" is new and different to me. | |
| Nov 20, 2016 at 19:15 | comment | added | dancingBear | In my own crude way, that is a major part of what I was trying to explain.I will have other requirements: | |
| Nov 20, 2016 at 16:09 | comment | added | Chris Stratton | There is no requirement that your data pass to an external "cloud" server - it could go directly from the network-equipped Arduino to your PC. However, if your PC will not be always on, then you will either need to hold the data in the Arduino until you can query it, or come up with some small power-efficient local server to collect and store it, perhaps based on a raspberry pi or by extending an OpenWrt-style router linux install, on any of a router chipset used for custom purpose, a Yun-stype device (which is just an Arduino-sized version of that) or else on your router itself. | |

| Nov 20, 2016 at 3:45 | comment | added | dancingBear | Sounds quite promising. What would it be called on the UNO R3 or the MKR1000? I have others as well, but are they on these boards and what are they called? | |
| Nov 20, 2016 at 3:30 | comment | added | Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams | The library for the chip you're using likely come with some examples. | |
| Nov 20, 2016 at 3:23 | comment | added | dancingBear | I would expect it could be hypertext transfer protocol, but don't quite understand. Are you referencing the operations I mentioned? If that is the case, sure. It could be readily converted for my purpose into the data I would need. | |
| Nov 20, 2016 at 3:13 | comment | added | dancingBear | I'm sorry, but which examples are you referencing? I don't quite understand, but appreciate your efforts. | |
| Nov 20, 2016 at 2:17 | comment | added | Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams | You mean like running a HTTP server on it like the examples show? | |
