I built an AI-powered object tracking camera with the ESP32-P4! It runs
YOLO object detection at 1.3 FPS and tracks objects with servo motors.
Let me show you how embedded AI actually works, what performance to expect, and how to optimize for real-world conditions.
TECH STACK:
- ESP32-P4
- ESP-DL library (YOLO11N INT8 model)
- OV5647 camera (800x640)
- LVGL graphics library
- PCA9685 servo controller
Components Used:
- ESP32-P4 Development Board w/ 7-inch Display Screen (Waveshare)

- OV5647 CSI Camera Module
amzn.to/477KBGM
- PCA9685 Servo Driver
amzn.to/47pkSbP
- Servo Motor
amzn.to/43BlGsM
- 18650 Battery Holder

![StickiNote: A Sticky Notes App for ESP32-P4 & MIPI DSI!
Introducing StickiNote – The Ultimate Digital Sticky Notes App for ESP32-P4! 🚀
This embedded Post-it application is optimized for ESP32-P4’s high-speed clock and MIPI DSI 10-inch display, delivering a smooth and responsive user experience!
Features:
✔️ Digital sticky notes – create, edit, move, resize, and delete notes.
✔️ Persistent storage (NVS) – notes are saved as JSON and restored on reboot.
✔️ Animated splash screen – seamless UI transition.
✔️ Floating Action Button (FAB) – quickly add new notes.
✔️ LVGL 9 optimized – for smooth animations and low memory usage.
✔️ Touch & Drag support – fully interactive UI.
Why ESP32-P4?
This project requires ESP32-P4 for its fast clock speed & MIPI DSI support to run smoothly on a 10-inch high-resolution display. Standard ESP32 boards may not perform optimally.

![A Useless Rubiks Cube Solver
Why build a standalone Rubiks Cube solver when smartphone apps already exist? Because I wanted a physical, screen-free gadget to play with together with my kids!
This is a fully handheld, offline Rubiks Cube solver powered by an ESP32-S3. It scans the cube using a built-in camera, detects colors with OpenCV, allows manual touch correction via an LVGL UI, and guides you through the solution step-by-step on a 2-inch LCD screen—all without needing a phone, cloud, or PC.
Hardware Components
• MCU: ESP32-S3 (Dual-Core, PSRAM)
• Board: Waveshare ESP32-S3-Touch-LCD-2
• Display: 2.0-inch ST7789T3 SPI LCD (240x320) + CST816S Touch Screen
• Camera: OV5640 Camera Module
• Battery: Internal LiPo Battery with Physical Power Switch
• Enclosure: Custom 3D Printed Case
