A designed web system of data collection for Arduino – Read temperature online!

We have tutorial discussed about how to put your data from sensor on internet, it still difficult to get start, a lot of code need to write and make a good web page. But now, after searching for a while, we found a website called Cosm.com which allow to collect data directly from arduino with WIZnet module, it’s super easy, and it visualize the data looks like this:

https://cosm.com/feeds/40093

Very well data visualization, and easy to use! the demo code will generate automatically, and you only need

• Arduino UNO
• Arduino wiznet module
• some analog or digital data input such as DS18B20 sensor

A detailed tutorial are available at arduino.cc website. But you can simply register on cosm.com website, get your feed ID, and insert these information for you on the demo codes. The internet things get easy!

The demo codes looks like these:

 /*
  Cosm sensor client

 This sketch connects an analog sensor to Cosm (http://www.cosm.com)
 using a Wiznet Ethernet shield. You can use the Arduino Ethernet shield, or
 the Adafruit Ethernet shield, either one will work, as long as it's got
 a Wiznet Ethernet module on board.

 This example has been updated to use version 2.0 of the Cosm.com API.
 To make it work, create a feed with a datastream, and give it the ID
 sensor1. Or change the code below to match your feed.

 Circuit:
 * Analog sensor attached to analog in 0
 * Ethernet shield attached to pins 10, 11, 12, 13
