	The TemperatureHumidity is a little (15 x 5 x 5 cm) black box with a black sphere on top. ~~It is connected~~ to ~~your computer with the attached~~ USB ~~cable~~. When connected it will identify itself as a ~~Virtual Serial~~ port.		The TemperatureHumidity device is a little (15 x 5 x 5 cm) black box with a black sphere on top. As the name suggests, it can measure temperature and humidity.

			You can attach the device to a PC via USB. When connected, it will identify itself as a virtual serial port.
