Tired of always opening up a web browser to look for COVID-19 data?

I built a COVID-19 Dashboard using an Arduino EtherDue (Arduino Due and Ethernet combined into one board) and and TFT LCD Shield. (Note that this particular TFT LCD shield is not available anymore, but the code can be easily modified to use any 320×240 LCD).

The website covidactnow.org has an API for downloading current COVID-19 data state-by-state (or county-by-county if you’re so inclined). You merely have to register to get a key, but it’s free to use.

Using this API, I request a single state’s worth of data every 10 seconds, taking a little over 8 minutes to update the entire map.
