Interfacing PMW3901 Optical Flow Sensor With ESP32 Drones rely on various sensors to maintain stable flight, especially when GPS is unavailable or unreliable. One important feature is position holding, where the drone stays in one place without drifting. This is crucial for indoor navigation, hovering, and precision landing. Optical flow sensors, like the PMW3901, help drones achieve this by tracking motion relative… |

Build an Automatic Motion Controlled Smart Fan using ATmega328 and Motion Sensor Here we are going to build a motion-controlled fan project using ATmega328 and RCWL-0516 Doppler RADAR Motion Sensor. This project will eliminate the need of manually turning on/off the room fan while entering or leaving the room as it can automatically turn on the fan upon detecting the motion. For example, once motion is detected, it will turn on the fan… |
