The IoT is the interconnection of physical objects or devices with sensors and software accessing capabilities to communicate data or information over the internet.
To build an IoT network, we need an interface medium that can fetch, control, and communicate data between sender and receiver electronics devices or servers.
Espressif Systems created the ESP32 Wi-Fi chip series. The ESP32 module is equipped with a 32-bit Tensilica microcontroller, 2.4GHz Wi-Fi connectivity, an antenna, memory, and power management modules, and much more. All of these built-in features of this ESP32 module make i ...
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 ...
