Maker Builds a 5-in-1 Cyber Deck Using an ESP32, 3.5-Inch Touchscreen Display, and Custom 3D-Printed Body Maker from the youtube channel Hacktuber recently made a custom "5-in-1 Cyber Deck" using ESP32. He demonstrated the project using two different ESP32 based development boards. One is a 2.8-inch CYD (Cheap Yellow Display) featuring an integrated touchscreen for quick prototyping, and the other is a 3.5-inch non-touch TFT display connected to an ESP32 C3 Mini, mounted onto a 3D-printed… |

This DIY Twilight Photometer Uses an LED and ADA4530 to Measure the Ozone Layer’s Peak Height from the Ground Forrest M. Mims III has built a DIY twilight photometer that estimates the height of the ozone layer by measuring changes in the brightness of the sky before sunrise or after sunset. The project was inspired by the need for a simpler ground-based method of studying the atmosphere. Mims has worked with professional ozone-measuring instruments and wanted to create a smaller and less complicated… |

Maker Turns an ESP32 S3 Into a Pocket PC by Porting Open Source Tactility OS to a 2.4 Inch Touch Display This project transforms a compact MaTouch Lite development board into a fully functional, portable touchscreen computer. The project uses an ESP32-S3 microcontroller, featuring 16MB of flash and 8MB of PSRAM, which provides the necessary performance to run a graphical environment. By integrating a 2.4-inch resistive touchscreen and a microSD card for storage, the creator successfully… |

ESP32-CAM AI Vision Assistant Pendant for the Visually Impaired Moving through unfamiliar environments is a challenging thing for visually impaired people. We have a lot of solutions, from sticks to obstacle-avoidance handheld devices on the market, to solve their problem. In the DIY world, a lot of makers have built obstacle-avoidance sticks using Ultrasonic sensors, IR sensors or even a PIR sensor and different variations of… |

Arduino Round Segment NeoPixel Clock Digital clocks are one of the most popular Arduino projects, and most of them use traditional seven-segment displays to show the time. While these displays are simple and reliable, they usually have the same familiar rectangular shape and monochrome appearance. When I decided to build a new digital clock for my room, I wanted to create something that worked like a seven-… |

Quaddle Is an Open-Source Desk Robot That Can Move Omnidirectionally With Just 4 Servos Petoi, the team behind the open-source Bittle and Nybble quadruped kits, has opened early access for its next robot, Quaddle. The company describes it as a four-servo quadruped capable of walking, strafing sideways, and spinning in place, a claim that stands out mainly because of how few actuators it uses to pull it off.
Most legged robots that can… |

We Built an ESP32 Wall Climbing Beetle Robot We can see wall-climbing robots from hobby-level to serious problem-solving ones that are used for inspection, surveillance, cleaning, etc. When we generally talk about robots, a robot can be a firefighting robot, a human-following robot, a self-balancing robot or can be of any type that has some specific features or solves a specific kind of problem. If we talk… |

How to Make an IoT Pet Tracking System with GPS and Geofencing "Where did my pet go?" If you have a pet, you've probably asked this question at least once. One moment they're playing happily in front of you, and the next... they're gone! Maybe they saw a butterfly, started chasing a bird, or simply decided to go on a little adventure without telling you. A GPS pet tracker solves this problem before it turns into a crisis. Now… |

How to Build an ESP32 Drone with Object Tracking Using LiteWing Most people assume object tracking for autonomous flight is very complex, but it doesn’t have to be that way. All you need is a different way of looking at the problem. We built this project to see if we could make a simple LiteWing drone behave intelligently using just a laptop and a basic camera.By placing the camera above the room ceiling, the floor becomes a… |

How to Send Data from ESP32 to Firebase Realtime Database In this tutorial, we’re going to learn how to send data from an ESP32 to Firebase Realtime Database. We are using ESP32 Firebase Google as our cloud platform. A lot of cloud-based IoT projects on YouTube / GitHub / similar platforms using ESP32, ESP8266, UNO R4, or similar microcontrollers use Firebase as the cloud platform. And this guide covers the complete ESP32… |
