Raspberry Pi CPU Temperature
Description
This flow reads the CPU temperature of the Raspberry Pi.
Motivation
I use the Sense HAT on Raspberry Pi to get environment data of the room. The problem of getting the room temperature with Sense HAT is the temperature of the Raspberry Pi itself, because it influences the measurement.
By reading the CPU temperature of the Raspberry Pi, I can calculate the real temperature by using the formula temp = (cpu_temp - sensor_temp) / factor. To calibrate the data you need to estimate the factor for the formula by comparing the real room temperature with the sensor measurements.
Requirement
System command: vcgencmd measure_temp
Described Use Case
- Raspberry Pi (I've tested 3B+ on Raspbian)
- Sense HAT (directly mounted on the Raspi)
