Demo of pairing a remote wireless sensor, RFM69 based, with main control hub https://youtu.be/r7twp9cV2z4 #IoT #ESP32 #rfm69 #homeautomation

Installed a self-made esp8266 gate controller with magnetic switch status sensor, I can now open/close/read the statate of the gate from anywhere. #IoT #esp8266

Forgot to add pull-ups on I2C lines, retrofitted resistors save the day

Wrote a 2.4GHz vs 433MHz range tester: sending espnow 2.4GHz and RFM69 @ 433MHz from master to a slave node. 433MHz range is much better from what I can see but I am comparing apples to pears here..

Testing ILI9488 3.5" TFT clocked @ 40Mhz in 4 wire SPI mode with DMA, looks pretty responsive. #LittlevGL #ESP32 https://youtu.be/HVVAo9QdOfM

It lives! #esp32 + 480*320 ILI9488 #TFT with touch + #LORA (not yet populated on the PCB) + RTC + piezo buzzer

Hand soldering 40 pin 0.5mm pitch FPC isn't my favorite thing to do, but here it is

Running automated GUI load tests, found couple memory leaks that were otherwise slipping

I have some reading to do for tonight, excellent free guide by Michael Barr

Toying with real-time 3D rendering on ESP32, adapted @elect_gombe 's code to my hardware setup

Considering professional enclosure design for my #ESP32 control hub/thermostat project #IoT #homeautomation

Was crowded at my IoT presentation @ http://dev.bg today, thank you for attending!

Hmm.. just got a notification that @skype has been my phone's microphone in the background..

Drafting a 3.5" TFT+touch version of my IoT control hub project; upgraded to ESP32 WROVER to benefit from the extra PSRAM. Planning on adding LoRa support

Bigger is better.. 3.5" 480×320 TFT with touch for a future version of my #ESP32 IoT control hub project
New blog post: ESP32 OTA firmware update using compressed firmware image https://wp.me/pawL3e-1fF #mqtt #iot #esp32 #esp8266 #homeautomation
TODO research feasibility of OTA firmware update 'resume' feature; will pick-up from where last OTA stopped receiving the firmware, so, in case of failed OTA, it will resume from where we left off #esp32 #esp8266 #iot
Testing compressed binary OTA firmware update for #ESP32, similar to http://esptool.py's serial flash compression. Speeds up OTA by reducing the size of the image transfer over a sometimes unreliable/slow internet connection.. works over HTTPS and MQTTS #IoT

#ESP32 OTA using #MQTT over SSL as transport and Node-Red as provider A short write-up of this here: https://harizanov.com/2019/01/esp32-ota-using-mqtt-over-ssl-as-transport-and-node-red-as-the-bin-image-provider/

Experimenting with dynamic frequency shifting, modem light sleep and TFT dimming to bring down power consumption to roughly 60mA while maintaining Wi-Fi connection to MQTT #ESP32
