    The BMP085 sensor has been replaced with BMP180 - With everything staying the same , a few methods shown in the loop method do not exist in the new Library . Instead of getAltitude - we now have a pressureToAltitude() - which takes the reference sea pressure , measured pressure .

    Hi Roshan, thank you for this. I have the BMP180 and plan to make an updated video for it, just didn't have the time yet... in my todo list!
