In this particular example we are going to display temperature readings from a DS18B20 on an OLED display, we will be using a Wemos mini and a variety of shields which make it easy to create projects like this with no wiring.
Lets take a look a the shields and boards
| Image |
Summary |
 |
The Wemos mini – ESP8266 based board, it comes with various headers. This is the beauty of it you can create stackable projects with the board and pin compatible shields |
 |
Not an official Wemos board but readily available featuring the ever popular DS18B20 temperature sensor |
 |
A little 64×48 OLED screen |
 |
This is simply a base, you plug the Wemos Mini into one side and you can plug a shield or shields into the other side |
Parts List
1 x Wemos Mini
1 x Wemos Dual Base
1 x OLED Shield
1 x Ds18B20 shield
I connect the Wemos Mini to the dual base and then put the OLED shield along side this, I then place the DS18b20 shield on top of the Wemos Mini. This image hopefully shows this

In this particular example we are going to simply display temperature, pressure and altitude readings from a MS5611 sensor on an OLED display. We will be using various Wemos MIni shields and an MS5611 sensor
Here is a little about the MS5611
This barometric pressure sensor is optimized for altimeters and variometers with an altitude resolution of 10 cm. The sensor module includes a high linearity pressure sensor and an ultra-low power 24 bit ΔΣ ADC with internal factory calibrated coefficients. It provides a precise digital 24 Bit pressure and temperature value and different operation modes that allow the user to optimize for conversion speed and current consumption. A high resolution temperature output allows the implementation of an altimeter/thermometer function without any additional sensor. The MS5611-01BA can be interfaced to virtually any microcontroller. The communication protocol is simple, without the need of programming internal registers in the device.
This is the module we used which makes it easy to use the sensor

In this particular example we are going to simply display visible light measurements from a OPT3001 sensor on an OLED display. We will be using various Wemos MIni shields and an OPT3001 sensor
Here is a little about the OPT3001
The OPT3001 is a sensor that measures the intensity of visible light. The spectral response of the sensor tightly matches the photopic response of the human eye and includes significant infrared rejection.
The OPT3001 is a single-chip lux meter, measuring the intensity of light as visible by the human eye. The precision spectral response and strong IR rejection of the device enables the OPT3001 to accurately meter the intensity of light as seen by the human eye regardless of light source. The strong IR rejection also aids in maintaining high accuracy when industrial design calls for mounting the sensor under dark glass for aesthetics. The OPT3001 is designed for systems that create light-based experiences for humans, and an ideal preferred replacement for photodiodes, photoresistors, or other ambient light sensors with less human eye matching and IR rejection.

This was a a simple board that I bought which basically consists of a red, yellow and green LED on a board, rather than buying seperate components and using a breadboard this is a reasonably low cost solution.
Code
In the example we use Pin 5 , 6 and 7 for the green, yellow and red LEDs
byte pinLedRed = 7;
byte pinLedYellow = 6;
byte pinLedGreen = 5;
void setup()
{
// Initialize the pins as output pins
pinMode(pinLedRed, OUTPUT);
pinMode(pinLedYellow, OUTPUT);
pinMode(pinLedGreen, OUTPUT);
}
void loop()
{
//Red signal
digitalWrite(pinLedRed, HIGH); // RED on
delay(5000); // 5 secs
//Yellow + Red
digitalWrite(pinLedYellow, HIGH); // YELLOW on
delay(1000); // 1 sec
//Green signal
digitalWrite(pinLedRed, LOW); // RED off
digitalWrite(pinLedYellow, LOW); // YELLOW off
digitalWrite(pinLedGreen, HIGH); // GREEN on
delay(5000); // 5 secs
//Yellow signal
digitalWrite(pinLedGreen, LOW); // GREEN off
digitalWrite(pinLedYellow, HIGH); // YELLOW on
delay(1000);
digitalWrite(pinLedYellow, LOW); // YELLOW off
