Hardware and software requirements
To complete this project, we will need only two major components. First is the Galileo board, of course, and the second one is the LCD screen.
The board that I've used is, again, the Intel Galileo Gen 2 board.
For the LCD screen, I've used the Saint Smart LCD. It's an IIC/I2C/TWI 20x4 LCD with a contrast control knob selector and a backlight. If you don't have this specific type of LCD, you can use any other I2C LCD: it won't be a problem.
You will also need a MicroSD card to store your data.
Here is the picture of the Saint Smart LCD that I have used in this project:
