We have tested a wide variety of IoT platforms in this opportunity we will create an account on the platform Ubidots, this initiative was born to facilitate the connection of devices applied to the industrial and health. To highlight the large number of available devices (libraries and integrations) to connect with ubidots. Ubidots has 2…
Electricity consumption meter Peacefair PZEM 004 + ESP8266 & Arduino Nano
For some time I wanted to buy a single-phase electricity consumption meter, a few months ago I got Peacefair Reference PZEM-004 meter, its price seemed affordable, it has the advantages of being a non-invasive meter in the electrical circuit and has a communication protocol to request data such as Active Instantaneous Power “kW”, Voltage “V”,…
Electric Consumption with Meter CHINT (pulses) + ESP8266 & Matrix led MAX7912
This time we will return to an interesting project, the measurement of electrical consumption in an invasive way with a CHINT DDS666 Meter Mono phase, technically it is a residential or residential meter that we have already presented in previous tutorials, finally I will finish what I started more than a year: Warning: Caution is…
Review Solar Panel 10W with Arduino and Node-RED
For a long time I had planned to make some application with photovoltaic panel or common solar panel, in this opportunity I have acquired a monocrystalline solar panel of 10w perfect to power the devices we use in our tutorials. Although this is in design, we will perform a meterological station – Gateway later, and…
Arduino IDE for ESP32 modules
Given the great popularity of the ESP8266 programmed from Arduino IDE in great contribution by Ivan Grokhotkov thanks, Currently for ESP32 modules has been allowed to program them from Arduino IDE in collaboration with espressif, Although it is a project under construction so far the control of certain hardware is in the process of migration. Currently…
Measuring DC Voltage with Arduino and Node-RED
There are a lot of tutorials DC voltage measurement with Arduino, in this case I found a tutorial that I consider the best functional method to measure DC without requiring input values of resistance, only requires some resistance and a multimeter, In next tutorials we will start with solar panels and we need to measure…
Introduction Platform Mongoose OS
For a long time I wanted to test Mongoose OS, this time we will make a brief introduction and installation in a Linux operating system “lubuntu” Ubuntu/Debian. Mongoose OS is an open source operating system for Internet of Things (IoT) and low power microcontrollers such as ESP32 , ESP8266 , TI CC3200, STM32 license Available under dual GPLv2 / business…
ESP-IDF for Modules ESP32 Complete Installation
This time we will install and configure Espressif IoT Development Framework platform (ESP-IDF) from scratch, this is the official espressif development platform for the ESP32 modules. In previous tutorials we talked a little about the ESP32 that have Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz band) and Bluetooth 4.2 in a single module among other features. ESP32 eBox&Widora first review I took…
Controlling Arduino from Node-RED with Firmware Firmata
In this opportunity we will use Node-RED to control an Arduino MEGA 2560 R3, thanks to the collaboration of a colleague Absolutely Automation I indicated this method that allows to easily control an Arduino if complications. Also in one of the comments does anyone consult if there is a more practical way to control from…
