I. Abstract
A. This projects goal was to determine the accuracy of pressure decreasing while
increasing in altitude upon riding the Harold Washington College Elevator.
B. Data was gathered at three separate stops on the elevator.
1. The first, was gathered on the ground level (1st floor) of HWC at an altitude of
203.28 m
2. The second, was gathered on the 5th floor at an altitude of 216.62 m
3. The third, was gathered on the 10th floor of HWC at an altitude of 233.89 m
C. The BMP 180 (Pressure and Temperature Sensor) connected to the Raspberry Pi 3 and
provided an accurate way to efficiently record Altitude, Pressure, and Temperature within
a moving elevator.
D. The A/P/T values were acquired by commanding the RPi 3 to capture data from the BMP
180 sensor at every floor stopped while being in the elevator.
