Welcome to the linux.conf.au 2017 Open Hardware Project. You can see information about this and other MiniConfs at http://www.openhardwareconf.org/wiki/Main_Page
This year we're bringing a project with the hottest new micro for people to have a play with. The ESP32 is the successor to the hugely popular ESP8266 chip we used for 2016 Open Hardware Project, the (ESPlant, https://github.com/CCHS-Melbourne/ESPlant).
The ESP32 is definitely the big brother of the ESP8266. Included in it's features: 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Dual Core CPUs
As usual we've got a custom board and some custom software to get you started on your journey! Check out the subdirectories in this repo for more information.
IoTuz firmware can be found at https://github.com/CCHS-Melbourne/iotuz-esp32-firmware
Workshop assembly instructions for people attending the LCA2017 Open Hardware Mini-Conference.
Please see https://github.com/marcmerlin/IoTuz mentioned below for an arduino driver.
Marc MERLIN has written a driver for the arduino environment with support for:
- TFT (hw SPI)
- Touchscreen (hw SPI)
- Replacement touchscreen support (calibration option in case your touchscreen is reversed or has different calibration)
- Rotary Encoder via pin interrupt driven driver
- Support for A and B buttons "hidden" behind the I2C IO multiplexer
- Joystick
- Color LEDs
- Accelerometer
- BME280 (temperature, humidity, pressure)
- IO expander (pcf8574)
- Infrared receiver
For this software, go to: https://github.com/marcmerlin/IoTuz
You need to clone the IoTuz repo from github, using the --recursive option to pick up submodules. If you download a zip file then the submodule parts will be missing, so we recommend using git to get it.
The command is:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/CCHS-Melbourne/IoTuz
Check out (and contribute to) the wiki. There is a pinout summary, sensor summary, power information, etc.
