Home weather dashboard

A weather dashboard is a display screen which will show weather information and forecasts for a particular area. The information can be fetched from a local server or a server in the internet. Here the project idea is to make a home weather dash board which shows the weather forecast for the current place and also the current situation. The dash board is basically a TV or an LED matrix display.

There will be an embedded system controlling this and the system is wifi. The device will fetch information from the server via the wifi internet connection and then it will format it and display it. The components needed are an access point, a serial to ethernet convertor and powerful microprocessor to handle the complex signals in the case of images.
