This DIY ESP32-S3 Wi-Fi Sensing System Detects People and Tracks Movements Without a Camera at 80% Accuracy Better Stack from Youtube recently used an open-source project called RuView and explored how Wi-Fi signals can be used to detect human presence and movements without relying on a camera. He describes how Wi-Fi signals change as he travels through a room and bounce off walls, furniture, and people. When someone moves, their body alters the signal's strength and phase across different frequency… |

VolAnti: An Open-Source ESP32-S3 Device That Detects Fibre-Optic Drones With No RF Control Link, Using Sound A maker named Agam Rossen has created VolAnti, an open-source acoustic drone detector that identifies nearby multirotor drones by listening to the sound of their propellers. Unlike traditional drone detectors that look for radio-frequency signals, VolAnti focuses on the sound produced by spinning blades. This approach is particularly relevant to fibre-optic-controlled FPV drones, which send… |

Maker Builds a Wireless 3D Scanner Using ESP32-S3 and Rotating LiDAR That Streams Data to a Custom Android App A maker has built a standalone 3D LiDAR scanner that turns an inexpensive rotating LiDAR module into a wireless spatial-mapping device. The scanner rotates the sensor to collect distance measurements across multiple angles, allowing it to capture the shape of objects and surrounding spaces instead of producing only a flat 2D scan.
An ESP32-S3 acts as… |

How to Identify ESP32 Flash & PSRAM Size ESP32 development boards have been around for years, and we all have been doing a lot of projects with them. They come in various models, with different peripherals, and they perform different levels of tasks. If we are to check into a simple example, we have the normal ESP32 WROOM development boards as well as the same ESP32 with a camera sensor mounted onboard, the… |
