This project was designed to activate my bathroom heater remotely when I wake up in the morning. 

My bathroom is FREEZING and made of solid tile, so it's especially chilly in winter mornings!

Using a Force Sensitive Resistor (FSR), when my head lifts off of my pillow, it activates the temperature sensor (TMP36) in the bathroom to read the temperature.  If the temperature is below 65 degrees Fahrenheit, then the bathroom heater is turned on.

*Note:  For demonstration purposes, I made the threshold temperature 85 degrees so that the "heater" would for sure turn on, as you can see in the code below.  I simulated the heater by using a blinking LED which only blinks once the "heater" has been activated.  If actually implemented, the blinking LED would still be present to give the status of the heater as being on or off.
