LogHeat

Temperature Logger

This project is a temperature logging system developed during the 2024 Biomedical Engineering Master Class at Grenoble INP. The system is designed to record temperature data in real-time, offering students practical experience in data acquisition, processing, and visualization, relevant to biomedical applications.

Features

• Real-time temperature logging: Captures temperature data from a connected sensor.
• Data storage: Saves logged data for later analysis.
• Data visualization: Provides a graphical interface for displaying temperature trends over time.
• Simple UI: User-friendly interface for ease of use by non-technical users.

This app does not include the possibility for the MCP inputs but it can be easily tweaked in the file SpiInteface.py

Hardware Requirements

• Thermocouple sensor
• MAX31855 thermocouple conditionning circuit

Running the Application

The main.py file is the entry point for the application. The required packages can be installed in a new virtual environment using:

pip install -r requirements.txt

To run the application, execute the main file using the following command:

python src/main.py

Compiling

To use the app on as a standalone, it can be compiled using pyinstaller.

Use the following command to compile the app:

pyinstaller main.spec

This will create a dist folder containing the compiled app. Compile on the os the app should be used on, but keep in mind spidev works only on the raspberry pi.
