The term internet of things was coined only in 2008, but within the next 10 years (in 2018) there were already more than 7 billion IoT devices connected to the internet, and the number is set to increase exponentially. IoT has enabled multiple inter-connected devices to sense and transfer data wirelessly over the internet to provide vital data and control in areas like Home automation, Location tracking, Asset monitoring etc..
This section provides a wide variety of IoT Projects with complete resources including circuit diagram and code, allowing you to build and test your own IoT applications. It also discusses the recent IoT Technology Trends and keeps you updated with the latest IoT News.
Many visually impaired people identify currency notes by touching them. But as people grow older, their touch sensitivity may gradually decrease, making it difficult to recognise the correct denomination accurately. Imagine an elderly shopkeeper in a small roadside store who has weak eyesight and struggles to identify the money given by customers. In such situations…
If you are working on IoT projects, you already know the importance of an M2M IoT SIM card for remote monitoring and tracking. For those who are new and wondering why you need a special M2M SIM card when you can just use your normal SIM card, here are two strong reasons to consider one.
Cost: If you are running a…
Think of a busy road where hundreds of riders pass every minute, some wearing helmets, many not, and imagine trying to monitor all of them manually. It’s almost impossible to keep track in real time. Now imagine a small device quietly watching the scene, capturing an image with a single trigger, and instantly telling you whether safety rules are being followed. That is exactly what this ESP32-…
A development team recently built a custom long-range livestock tracking system designed specifically for farms located in mountainous regions with poor cellular coverage. Instead of relying on standard GPS trackers that require 4G connectivity, the project uses a private LoRa-based communication network to help farmers monitor cattle positions in real time. The complete setup consists of…
The integration of addressable LEDs with the WLED firmware has revolutionized DIY lighting projects, allowing for complex visual effects with minimal to no coding. However, most standard WLED-based clocks face significant limitations, such as time-drift during internet outages and continuous power consumption regardless of room occupancy and no alarms. To address these issues, this…
This tutorial shows you how to build a real-time object detection system using the ESP32-CAM module and the CircuitDigest Cloud Object Detection API. The system captures an image on button press, sends it to the cloud via wireless or internet connection, retrieves the identified objects with name(s), how many there were and how confident (how much certainty the algorithm has) of the object…
Nowadays, automation has become a common part of our daily lives. From simple tasks like operating a coffee machine to creating code for complex applications, many processes are now automated. However, most systems used for controlling devices depend on internet connections, mobile applications, or cloud platforms. In many places, internet availability may be poor or…
Nowadays, everything is rapidly transitioning into the digital world, from the way we communicate to how industries operate and services are delivered. Traditional methods that once relied on manual processes are now being replaced by smart, automated, and interconnected systems. Building an automated attendance system using ESP32-CAM is a practical, affordable way…
Proper waste sorting is very important for keeping our neighbourhoods clean and saving resources for the future. When we mix food scraps, plastic, paper, and batteries in the same bin, recycling becomes hard, landfills fill up quickly, and harmful chemicals leak into the soil and water. Over time, this creates bigger problems like higher cleanup costs and more damage…
Nordic Semiconductor launched its nRF54L Series in April 2023 as a wireless platform for IoT devices. Now, the company is expanding the same nRF54L series with the launch of two new entry-level Bluetooth LE SoCs - the nRF54LS05A and the nRF54LS05B, targeting cost-sensitive IoT applications. This launch was announced at the Embedded World 2026 on March 9. These ultra-low-power chips are…
From blinking LEDs to building robots, the Arduino UNO was the development board that made electronics feel possible for students, professionals and a lot of hobby makers around the world. While keeping the familiar idea of Arduino UNO and its form factor the same, they have launched this board called the Arduino UNO Q, which is a more capable variant of the original…
Bluetooth communication is everywhere. Due to its low power consumption, we can see it in a lot of our day-to-day gadgets. Behind the scenes, it's all about signals. Let’s explore what really happens when data is transmitted or disturbed via Bluetooth. This project is based on an ESP32 and two NRF24L01 modules, and we are going to learn how we can generate a 2.4 GHz…
