MakerVerse India 4 hrs 4.9 rating 18.4k views
Overview & Construction Guide
Smart Egg Incubator to optimize the temperature and humidity using real-time WiFi telemetry to increase the chance of hatching eggs. Includes automatic egg turning mechanism, digital PID heating control, and cloud alerts over Telegram and Blynk.
Step-by-Step Build Instructions:
- 1Build the thermal insulated acrylic chamber with air circulation vents.
- 2Mount the DHT22 sensor in the center zone away from direct heater radiation.
- 3Connect the NodeMCU to the relay module to trigger the heating coil and egg turning servo.
- 4Flash the Arduino C++ firmware with WiFi credentials and Blynk auth token.
- 5Calibrate the PID temperature loop to hold 37.5°C ± 0.2°C consistently.
