Hello readers, we hope you all are doing great. Welcome to the 1st lecture of Section 4 in the ESP32 Programming Series. In this section, we will interface the ESP32 module with common Embedded modules(i.e. LCD, Keypad, RTC etc.).
In today's tutorial, we will interface ESP32 with a 16x2 LCD and will display data using both Data Mode and I2C Mode. LCD is the most commonly used embedded module in IoT Projects. It is used to display different types of data i.e. sensor readings, warning messages, notifications etc.
Before going forward, let's first have a look at what is LCD and How it works:
16x2 LCD Module
LCD(Liquid Crystal Display) is a type of electronic display module that is used in a wide variety of applications and devices such as calculators, computers, mobile phones, ...
Hello friends. In this lecture, we are going to have a look at the different kinds of MATLAB data types.
As we have already seen in previous lectures, MATLAB stands for MATrix LABoratory and allows us to store numbers in the form of matrices.
Elements of a matrix are entered row-wise, and consecutive row elements can be separated by a space or a comma, while the rows themselves are separated by semicolons. The entire matrix is supposed to be inside square brackets.
Note: round brackets are used for input of an argument to a function.
A = [1,2,3; 4,5,6; 7,8,9];
An individual element of a matrix can also be called using ‘indexing’ or ‘subscripting’. For example, A(1,2) refers to the element in the first row and second column.
A larger matrix can al ...
Welcome to the second chapter of our beginner's course on the Raspberry Pi. In the previous tutorial, we learned about the components of this little computer. We also considered its uses, as well as the most important advantages and disadvantages. Let's get started with setting up our little computer to run the Raspbian operating system in this lesson.
How to Install Raspbian using an imager
The next step is to make sure you have your board and SD card. The Raspberry Pi has an operating system because it is a full computer. For those who prefer a GUI desktop experience, a headless mode is still an option. Most people use Raspbian, a Debian-based operating system tailored specifically for the Raspberry Pi. However, there are other options. An exce ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. It's the 8th tutorial in our Raspberry Pi programming course. In the previous lectures, we interfaced LCD 16x2 and Keypad 4x4 with Raspberry Pi 4. In this chapter, we are not going to interface any external module with Pi, instead, we'll create a PWM signal in the raspberry pi using Python. Let's get started:
Components RequiredWe are going to use the below components in today's PWM project:
Raspberry Pi 4.
LED.
A resistor of 330 ohms.
Breadboard.
Jumper wires.Before going forward, let's first understand what is PWM:
What is PWM?
In PWM(Pulse Width Modulation), we simply turn on and off our power supply at regular intervals and thus ...
Hello geeks, welcome to our new project. In this project, we are going to make a very interesting project. I think most of us have seen the scoreboards in sports, after looking at that, have you ever wondered about the working of it. Therefore, this time, we will be making something like that only with some extra features. So basically that score board is nothing but a counter which counts the scores. Most of the geeks who have an electronics background or have ever studied digital electronics must have heard about the counter.
Here, in this project, we are going to make an Up-Down counter. A simple counter counts in increasing or decreasing order but the Up-Down counter counts in increasing and decreasing order, both depending upon the input it h ...
Hello readers, I hope you all are doing great. In this tutorial, we will learn how to interface the BMP280 sensor with the ES32 module to get temperature, pressure and altitude readings. Later, in this tutorial, we will also discuss how to upload these sensor readings to a web server.
BMP280
BMP280 or Barometric pressure sensor is a module used to measure temperature pressure and altitude. The small size and low power consumption feature of this sensor makes it feasible for battery-powered devices, GPS modules and mobile applications etc.
Fig. 1 BMP280 Sensor
The BMP280 is the product of BOSCH which is based on Bosch’s proven Piezo-resistive pressure sensor technology featured with high accuracy, long term stability, linearity and high EMC robus ...
Hello readers, we hope you all are doing great. Welcome to the 4th lecture of Section 5(ESP32 Sensor) in the ESP32 Programming Series. So far, we have discussed the ESP32 built-in sensors in this section. Today, we are going to interface an external embedded sensor(i.e. PIR Sensor) with the ESP32 Microcontroller board. At the start, we will discuss the basics of a PIR Sensor(HC-SR501) i.e. its pinout and working. After that, we will design a simple project to detect the motion with a PIR sensor and ESP32. Finally, we will display the motion detection results on the ESP32 WebServer.
We will use ESP32 interrupts to detect the motion. Interrupts are used when a microcontroller needs to continuously monitor an event while executing other tasks at the same time. We have already posted a tuto ...
Hi Friends! Hope you’re well today. I welcome you on board. In this post today, I’ll walk you through Cloud Computing Services.
The requirement to process and store data varies from business to business. Some organizations can handle data in on-site data centers. They have a team of experts who handle IT infrastructure and install, maintain and upgrade hardware based on the availability of data. This approach is expensive, no doubt. Some companies, however, don’t accept this model. They prefer cloud computing which is the availability of on-demand IT infrastructure over the internet. This model sets them free from handling and managing on-site data centers, instead, everything is managed and controlled by the cloud service providers. End users only pay for the computing services they use. ...

Hello geeks, welcome to our new project. Here, we are going to make a very useful project which we can use for ourselves or we can use this as a product as well on an industry level.
In this project, we are going to make a water level indicator. We all know it is one of the most essential products because there are many water tanks in every house or office, and most of them are not easily accessible to check the level of water in it and I think most of us faced the problem such as shortage of water as we do not have anything to monitor the exact amount of water available in the tank and this causes many problems on our daily lives.
Software to install
As we are going to make this project in the simulation first, for that, we will use the Proteus ...
