Bluetooth Module interfacing with ESP8266: Controlling an LED Bluetooth Module Interfacing with ESP8266: Controlling an LED

This comprehensive guide shows you how to interface the HC-05 Bluetooth module with the ESP8266 NodeMCU using Arduino IDE. Nowadays, Bluetooth has become an integral part of digital devices, and it comes built-in in most of the devices such as smartphones, laptops, PC, cameras, Watches, Fitness Bands and many more. Bluetooth has always been the dominant protocol in wireless…

Controlling Home Lights with Touch using TTP223 Touch Sensor and Arduino UNO Control Home Lights with Touch using TTP223 Touch Sensor and Arduino UNO

In some applications, user input is required to control the functions of a device. There are different kinds of user input methods used in the embedded and digital electronics. The touch sensor is one of them. Touch sensor is an important and widely used input device to interface with a microcontroller and it has made inputting data simpler. There are individual places where…

Controlling Light using Touch Sensor and 8051 Microcontroller Controlling Light using Touch Sensor and 8051 Microcontroller

In modern electronics world, touch input is used almost everywhere, whether it can be a mobile phone or an LCD monitor switch. Capacitive touch is the widely used in the touch sensor segment and we previously used capacitive touch with a Raspberry Pi. Here in this project, we will interface touch sensor with 8051 microcontroller AT89S52. If you are new to 8051 microcontoller…

DIY Arduino Wi-Fi Shield using ESP8266 for Voice controlled Home Automation Google Assistant Based Voice Controlled Home Automation using DIY Arduino Wi-Fi Shield

Humans and machines interact and communicate with one other in many possible ways, computers have monitor, keyboard and mouse, while smart phones have touch screen, gesture control etc and even AR and VR is on its way. But the most basic tool used by humans to communicate is vocal communication, we have the capability to listen and speak and if the machines could somehow do…
