Imagine having all your devices connected via one smart voice assistant giving you the ability to turn things on or off as you wish. Well, you can do exactly that. Read on to see how you can control any electrical appliance with the help of Google Assistant. More info
With hydroponic cultivation we mean a different method of plant growth, in fact instead of the earth there is water with dissolved mineral salts that flows between the roots. In this project we will see how a hydroponic greenhouse controlled by an ESP8266 was built. The system consists of pumps and temperature sensors controlled by…
In this project we will see how a clock was created that displays the numbers through air bubbles inside tubes. The system consists of an ESP8266 which, through an I / O Expander MC2301, controls the solenoids that allow the creation of air bubbles inside 8 tubes. There are also a 0.91 “display and 8…
In this IoT project, we will see how to create an IoT module that allows you to turn on 4 lamps, or any other load, controllable by Google Assistant and Alexa. As you can see from the image above, the system is based on a NodeMCU that controls a 4 relay module. In the absence…
This project uses ESP8266 NodeMCU as the control device that easily connects to existing WiFi network & creates a Web Server. When any connected device accesses this web server, ESP8266 NodeMCU reads in temperature & relative humidity from the DHT11, DHT22/AM2302 sensor & sends it to the web browser of that device with a nice…
In this project, I am going to show how I made Alexa enabled home monitoring and controlling system using RSL10 Sense Development Board from ON Semiconductor. RSL10 is used to sense the environmental parameters (temperature, humidity, air pressure, and light intensity) of a room. An Alexa Skill was developed to remotely access these…
Schools are closed here in Germany until after Easter vacation, and that means that our almost-six-year-old son Max is staying at home with us. The good news is that my wife and I work from home anyway, so it’s not too stressful as long as he can look after himself for eight hours per…
A fantastic feature of any WiFi-enabled microcontroller like ESP8266 NodeMCU is the ability to update its firmware wirelessly. This is known as Over-The-Air (OTA) programming. More info
Using Python and open source software we publish data from a sensor over MQTT, persist the data and visualise it in real-time. More info Buy Raspberry Pi and Fishino boards from our store!
People who are completely blind or have impaired vision usually have a difficult time navigating outside the spaces that they’re accustomed to. In fact, physical movement is one of the biggest challenges for blind people, explains World Access for the Blind. Traveling or merely walking down a crowded street can be challenging. Because of…
We make a NeoPixel light installations using Fishino and NodeMCU, controlled via Wi-Fi from PC or Raspberry Pi through a Python library. A few years ago, the American Adafruit Industries revolutionized the LED market by introducing its NeoPixels, whose main feature is to integrate, in a single package, an RGB LED and its controller….
With Pacer, Faraday Motion wants to provide a set of standard, modular components paired with open-source software for developers and makers to create affordable and simple electric vehicles. Pacer is build on top of the Arduino core for ESP8266 and is running on the NODEMCU ESP8266 WiFi module. Their open-source software allows the chip to connect to a smartphone or WiFi…
