Studying Avogadro's Law with Arduino.

Asensor of the type BMP180, together with Arduino, is used to easily measure at-mospheric pressure and temperature at schools. The open source Arduino microcontroller board presents countless teaching applications in science and engineering projects. It allows students to implant their creativity into a friendly environment and take ownership of their scientific explorations. Schools take advantage by incorporating Arduino into the learning and teaching process because of the inexpensive cost of the experiments and the educational experiences being provided to students. The potential of the Arduino platform in physics education is well known, and most students are usually excited by physics labs based on it. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
