The ESP8266-01 has been a great module to quench all our thirsts for IOT projects. Since its release, it has developed a strong community and evolved into an easy to use, cheap and powerful Wi-Fi module. Another open-source platform which is much more popular is the Arduino, it already has tons of projects built around […]

The ESP8266 ESP-01 is a module for Wi-Fi that enables microcontrollers to connect to a Wi-Fi network. This module is an independent SOC (System On a Chip) that does not require a microcontroller for managing inputs and outputs like you would typically do with an Arduino, as the ESP-01 functions as a miniature computer. It
A couple of years I embarked on my own home automation project. It started off by building a server controlled 433 MHz transmitter build with an Arduino to switch lots of cheap PT2262 based remote switches. Later I added an Arduino based receiver for my weather station, hooked up the control contact of my EV
Some time ago, I tried to make an “Instructables Hit Counter” using the Instructables API, and an Arduino Uno with a wired network shield. However, with the limited RAM of the Arduino Uno, I was unable to get the system to work. A while ago, I noticed a similar project done by diytronics using a NodeMCU. This was just
I have a solar power installation using an Omnik string inverter. Omnik is a China based manufacturer of PV inverters and they make extremely efficient devices. Optionally, you can install a WiFi module to make it “connected”. I am very content with the device, with two notable exceptions. It “phones home” to a China based

WiFi has become an integral part of our life and daily billions of people use WiFi as a method to access the internet. But the range of WiFi is limited, unlike a cellular connection. A normal WiFi router usually has a range of about a 100m in clear sight and about 20m to 50m without clear

This project is to replace the conventional remote control for all the home appliances like AC, TV, DVD players, music system, SMART appliances !!! Making a whole junk of remote littering around, making us puzzle!!! This project will save us from the junk to remotes by replacing all by ONE REMOTE! 2 part of this project: DECODING

We have build car using many transmission technologies. But what about a WiFi Controlled Car? Actually speaking..Wifi is till now the most promising technology and engineers are using that tech to improve it more and more. This tech is most popular today and will remain for decades.Low power WiFi have also been developed.So let us
