Debugging tools are critical to quick and effective development. Without being able to peek under the hood at what’s really going on, it can be difficult to understand and solve problems. Those who live on the Arduino platform are probably well acquainted with using the serial port to debug, but it’s far from the only […]
How to connect the Arduino MKR 1000 with the WiFi. Things used in this project Hardware components Arduino MKR1000 × 1 Software apps and online services Arduino IDE Story How to connect the MKR 1000 with the WiFi? – It’s easier than you think. The article will be helpfull only if you are already set
Send status messages of your MKR1000 via Pushover service to your mobile phone, etc. Things used in this project Hardware components Arduino MKR1000 Story An IoT node must be trimmed to reduce current consumption due to battery life. A WiFi-based node as Arduino MKR1000 needs a lot of current while sending. To avoid a high
This versatile embedded single board computer hits on all the main points for a low power, cost effective, Internet-of-Things (IoT) capable, and ready-to-deploy OEM board with an emphasis on data integrity. The TS-7553-V2 offers the ability to communicate seamlessly with several different networks simultaneously from a single device. Using the onboard peripherals the system can

Over the last few years, we’ve seen the value of putting tiny WIFi-enabled microcontrollers on a module that costs a dollar or two. Those smart light bulbs in your house probably have an ESP8266 in them, and you can build a WiFi-enabled anything with one of these chips for next to no money. Now there’s
Last Thursday I had a lot of fun doing a workshop at my college (UMass Amherst) where I taught students to use a WiFi-enabled Color LED matrix combined with Javascript programs to create animations displayed onto the LED matrix. The matrix is made of 5×7 WS2812 (NeoPixel) LEDs. I’ve actually designed it two years ago
WiFi-enabled Color LED Matrix using ESP8266 and WS2812 LEDs Continue Reading
My MQTT network at home moves up and down a lot of messages: sensor values, triggers, notifications, device statuses,… I use Node-RED to forward the important ones to PushOver and some others to a Blynk application. But I also happen to have an LED display at home and that means FUN. LED displays are cool.
I will show you how to send emails from any ESP8266 wifi module using Gmail server. This instructable relies on Arduino core for ESP8266 WiFi chip, which makes a self-contained microcontroller from it (no need of AT commands and master devices). You can connect sensors and get notified by email about changes. Before we begin
Introducing WiLoader, The new generation of programmers Have you ever thought of programming wirelessly ? WiLoader is the answer. But HOW ???? WiLoader easily connects to your WiFi network, then you can program your AVR, Arduino boards and Robots. It doesn’t need any kind of cable for computer connection, especially those huge old USB

It has been about one year since the announcement of ESP32 SoC and the beginning of its beta testing for some developers. Last Month we covered the release of ESP-WROOM-32 module datasheet, which promised that “New SDK features, tutorials and example applications will be released over the next few months.”. The ESP-32 datasheet was released
