[x] Connect I2C modules to raspberry pi
[x] Configure circuit according to datasheet. * http://pdf1.alldatasheet.com/datasheet-pdf/view/211808/STMICROELECTRONICS/STLM75M2E.html
[x] Verify that the modules are working correctly by determining if they can be detected.
[x] This should be repeated for all sensor modules after initial construction
- [x] Temperature sensors
- [x] Light sensors
- [x] Humidity Sensors

The above steps have been verified for the temperature modules. The light sensor modules still need to be tested.

In order to test, the temperature modules were connected according to the datasheet listed above. Then, after enabling I2C on the raspberry pi, running sudo i2cdetect -y 1 pings all I2C devices and prints the addresses in the terminal.
