```Description:In this example, we create a simple LED circuit using the Vero Board. Connect the positive leg of the LED to the 1k resistor, and the other leg of the resistor to the positive terminal of the 9V battery. Connect the negative leg of the LED to the negative terminal of the battery. Use jumper wires to connect the components to the Vero Board. This circuit will light up the LED when the battery is connected.### Example 2: IoT Sensor Node using Vero Board and ESP8266 MicrocontrollerComponents:1 x Vero Board (2x3 inch)

Serial.println("Failed to read from DHT11 sensor!");
} else {
Serial.print("Temperature: ");
Serial.print(temp);
Serial.println(" C");
Serial.print("Humidity: ");
Serial.print(humi);
Serial.println(" %");
}

```Description:In this example, we create an IoT sensor node using the Vero Board, ESP8266 microcontroller, and DHT11 temperature and humidity sensor. The ESP8266 connects to a WiFi network and reads data from the DHT11 sensor, printing the temperature and humidity values to the serial console. The Vero Board is used to connect the ESP8266 and DHT11 sensor, and the breadboard is used to connect the components. This project demonstrates the versatility of the Vero Board in IoT applications.
