I’ve just come on board with this project. I too have a sense hat and wanted to integrate that into my Mirror. So I did…
The problem I have found is that due to the location of the SenseHat, the CPU and other components heat the temperature sensor. It does not produce a reliable temperature. Having said that, there are python programs that do give the temperature and humidity from the sensor. There are also correction factors for both.
I’ve written a module that displays the temp and humidity. It uses a copy of the MMM-DHT22 module as its prototype. The helper program calls a nodejs function that runs a python program. The correction factor is added to the config.js file for the Mirror. The correction factors need to be figured out by the owners of the pi. It’s totally up to them to measure and try different factors.
My problem with getting this to folks is that I don’t know how to submit new modules to the forum. I don’t have any problem distributing this out so people can use it.
