+# Temperature Logger
+
+This is a little program I wrote to talk to an Arduino over USB serial to read
+temperature and relative humidity values using a DHT11 sensor. 
+
+`main.c` is the PC program that does the logging (printing to stdout). 
+
+I was working on getting it to write to an SQLite3 database, but didn't get 
+further than initialising the databases. 
+
+`arduino.ino` is the Arduino IDE project that reads from the hardware using the 
+Adafruit sensors library. 
+
+The arduino code is very arduino which isn't too nice since sine its such a tiny 
+project pulling a lot of dependencies but I guess that's fine. Re-writing the 
+DHT11 library would probably be interesting to do.
