In theory, using MicroPython on the ESP32 is easy — just flash an image and connect using a serial port. But that leaves a lot of things you still have to do. You need to move files between the two ...

I’ve been playing with a few MicroPython projects recently on several different embedded platforms, including a couple of ESP32 WiFi modules. There are various ways to program these modules: For over ...

Arduino has introduced a Nano shaped board with a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth LE capable Espressif’s ESP32-S3 microcontroller, supporting it with the Arduino IDE and MicroPython. “Beginners can explore in an ...

Typically associated with circuitry projects and real-time operating systems, microcontrollers are great for tinkerers who prefer working with embedded devices. But unlike their SBC counterparts, you ...

Pimoroni's Baguette S3 is a breadboard-friendly ESP32-S3 board taking only one row through its 30-pin GPIO header.

For smart home deployments, there are a lot of ways to track the presence of individuals in a room. There are motion detection sensors that use mmWave and PIR, and you can also use simple detection ...

Espressif’s popular ESP32 microchip, found in over a billion devices, has been caught with its digital trousers down, thanks to an undocumented "backdoor" lurking in its Bluetooth firmware. For those ...

The ubiquitous ESP32 microchip made by Chinese manufacturer Espressif and used by over 1 billion units as of 2023 contains undocumented commands that could be leveraged for attacks.

The cheap WLAN and Bluetooth chips from the manufacturer Espressif, ESP32, contain undocumented commands in the Bluetooth hardware communication in current firmware versions. This opens up a security ...
