After the first part with the OrangePi Zero, there are two things left to do: add some buttons, so it will be possible to reset or power down the device without going to the OctoPrint’s WEB UI and make some kind of casing, so it won’t be just a bare board lying on a desk. … Read more
I have started modifying my own 3D printer and one of the mods is a WEB interface. To have the WEB interface, the printer is connected to its own WEB server which has Octoprint running on a small OrangePi Zero Linux computer. Octoprint is an open-source project which is intended to allow 3D printing without … Read more
Today I will talk about several problems I had after designing a custom PCB for an ESP-32 module. This PCB was used in Wi-Fi connected switch used for controlling LED strip Wi-Fi enabled module. The idea was to make a PCB for a Wi-Fi switch. The switch itself was modified commercially available wall switch made … Read more
Today I am going to talk about a DIY LED strip controller based on an ESP-12E (ESP8266) module. All ideas are the same as they were in the Wi-Fi temperature-humidity sensor (Part 1 and Part 2). This controller is also going to have a web interface, through which you can control light intensity or power … Read more
In this post we will continue and hopefully end writing a basic ESP8266 (based on ESP-12) web interface. If you haven’t read first part of this post, I suggest doing it here. If you have, then let’s proceed with the second part. So, what we are left to do is to basically write all server-side … Read more
This project is mainly oriented to writing a basic WEB user interface for ESP8266. The temperature sensor will be more like an addition to the project instead of being project’s main topic. You can split ESP based projects into two main types: 1) a device with a battery and 2) a device which is powered … Read more
