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.
The Smart SMS Alert System using Seeed Studio Xiao ESP32 is one of the compact IoT projects that uses an HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor to detect nearby movement. The system acts like a motion detector whenever something moves close to the sensor and crosses the set threshold. The ESP32 Seeed Studio module instantly triggers an SMS alert. The ESP32 can send real-time SMS…
Ever thought about how you could monitor the household energy usage of your home remotely without heavy hardware or a complex setup? To make this idea practical, we came up with this project: an IoT based Smart Energy Meter using MQTT with SMS alert. Using the PZEM-004T sensor with ESP32, this smart energy meter using IoT provides real-time tracking of voltage…
This project involves creating your own GPS tracker using the Xiao-ESP32-S3 microcontroller. Usually, making a GPS tracker needs extra parts like a SIM card, a GSM module, and other communication tools to send location data to a phone or computer. Building a GPS tracker with Seeed Studio XIAO has never been easier. But that’s not an issue anymore. At Circuit Digest,…
Suchi Semicon announced the addition of new QFN (Quad Flat No-lead) and Power Package families to its portfolio. The QFN types include QFN, uQFN, DFN, and XFN options, whereas the Power Package types comprise DPAK, TO-series and IPAK options. This move helps avoid dependency on external suppliers by satisfying the package requirements of Indian chip designers and product manufacturers in-house…
In addition to causing delays, fuel waste, and increased pollution, traffic jams and congestion are serious concerns in cities and can occasionally result in fatalities. Traditional traffic light systems operate on fixed time intervals, often leading to unnecessary delays during periods of low traffic. To overcome this issue, in a smart traffic management system…
The ESP32-CAM is one of the most popular development modules, featuring built-in Wi-Fi and a camera. With its robust 32-bit processor, it’s widely used in countless projects by hobbyists around the world! Thanks to its ability to capture images and videos, the possibilities in the Internet of Things are endless, from monitoring and surveillance to automation.

Finding the right ESP32-S3 development kit often means compromising between functionality and deployment readiness. With so many ESP32-S3 dev kits out there, we have been searching for a ready-to-deploy module that doesn’t require extra work like designing enclosures or 3D printing cases. These things can significantly increase the deployment time. One such kit we…
There have been many development boards recently built around the ESP32-S3. Most development boards come with a display, some also include cameras and buttons, and a few have speakers and microphones. Finding one that brings all these components together without compromising on quality has been the real challenge for makers and developers. Keeping all this in mind,…
Combining the dual-core processing capabilities of the ESP32 with the reliability of GSM connectivity, the ESP32 GPS tracker with SIM800L is the perfect solution for real-time position tracking. Unlike Wi-Fi-only solutions, this ESP32 GSM GPS system will work anywhere there is cellular coverage, because it does not rely on Wi-Fi. The NEO 6M GPS module with ESP32, in…
DigiKey, the leading global electronic components and automation products distributor, announces the just-released Arduino ® UNO Q is available for preorder through the DigiKey website. The cutting-edge new generation of development boards combines a powerful microprocessor with graphic acceleration and a dedicated microcontroller for streamlined product development.
Whether you need a…
A young semiconductor start-up called IndieSemiC made headlines at Semicon India 2025, Delhi, by launching India’s first IoT Evolution Board with Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw. The product comes from a partnership between the startup and C-DAC (Centre for Development of Advanced Computing). It uses a homegrown VEGA processor and supports Bluetooth and LoRa.
The board has a wide range…
The Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionised how we control devices, enabling seamless remote monitoring and operation over a network. This tutorial presents an innovative solution for remote stepper motor control, allowing you to precisely adjust its position, monitor its performance, and receive real-time feedback directly from a simple web browser. For those…
