In this video I have built a three and a four wheeled omnidirectional PCB robot based on an ESP32-S2. It has an OV2640 camera on board which's stream can be viewed via a webserver. As I made a mistake for the four wheeled robot it is not able to drive yet, but new PCBs are already in the lab. Next robots are based on ESP32-S3 and additionally comes with other huge features! Stay tuned!

From dashsbuttons to the final ESP32-C3 based Picoclick-C3. A long road of designing, testing and optimizing this device has reached an end. The Picoclicks are WiFi connected buttons for the internet of things. They can send messages which perform different actions in your smart home or the world wide web. But the Picoclick-C3 has become more than just an IOT-button. Due to its extension port it can be used as a tiny development board. It can communicate with other I2C devices like shown in the video, but the external GPIOs can be used in several different ways. More over this Picoclick can be activate by an external source (and not the button itself) which implies tons of new possibilities.
The extension boards for the Picoclick can be very useful. I've only showed one of them in this video, but two others are already in the lab and five more are already designed and ready for production. What extension board do you think of? Which useful application can be added to this tiny device? Write your suggestions in the comments below! :)

Actually this board was designed to test three new modules I haven't worked with so far: The ESP32-S2-Mini, the RFM95 LoRa transceiver and the ATGM336h GPS module. In the end, this device can be used as a simple GPS-Tracker which will publish its current position and other data over LoRa (-WAN). Due to its main processor, the ESP32-S2, the device is able to communicate over WiFi and thus can be used as a LoRa2MQTT bridge as well.
Did you ever work with LoRa? Tell me your experiences and suggestions for future projects with such a module in the comments below!
Content: 1:04 Assembling the device 3:35 Measuring the power consumption 4:52 Why Paperclick consumes so less power 5:51 Paperclick in action 6:32 Initial idea of the device
Paperclick is an IOT device for tracking activities in a very easy way. By tapping on the display it will update the current date & time which the device gets from an NTP server. So you'll ever know when you did a task the last time. Additionally it could do other WiFi based tasks like updating an online sheet with the timestamps the device was tapped. Paperclick is based on the ESP32-C3 RISC-V processor. Additionally the board is equipped with a LiPo charger, a WS2812 LED and two user buttons on the sides. The battery monitoring as well as the latching circuit is optimized compared to my other IOT devices, which results in a current consumption of just 140nA in idle state.

The Reflow-Controller was built to control different kinds of reflow ovens, hotplates and whatever is coming to my mind in the future. It is based on the ESP32-S2 and thus can be programmed to be used with a WiFi App or whatever. Nevertheless, it has an onboard OLED display and three buttons included to be used as a standalone solution either. Furthermore it can control up to four independent outputs (for example 2x solid state relay & 2x cooling fan) and two thermocouple sensor inputs.
My commonly used tools: makermoekoe.com/tools-and-stuff-in-the-labIve built a Stencil Jig for fast and easy PCB assembly | makermoekoemaker.moekoe2022-03-10 | Dealing with stencils is always tricky, because they have to be aligned perfectly to get great soldering results. So far, I was always using these stencils with spare PCBs around the project PCB which are fixed in position with tape. As I am using these stencils quite often in the last time I was thinking about creating a simple jig for it - and here it is. The Stencil-Jig is a simple DIY machine for PCB stenciling built with the Openbuilds V-slot system.
The stencils can be clamped into the Stencil-Jig with the inner V-slot extrusions and the corresponding aluminum rods. With all the adjustment screws on the sides and the front, the PCB and the stencil can be aligned easily to match each other.

The Picoclick C3T is a tiny WiFi and BLE IoT button for several applications. Originally designed for smart home things, the Picoclick can also be used as an actuator for IFTTT automations or as an MQTT device. It is based on the single core ESP32-C3 RISC-V processor and therefore comes with tons of useful features. With dimensions of only 10.5mm by 18mm the C3T not only the smallest one in the family of the Picoclicks, it is also the smallest device I have created so far.

This device is the first prototype of a localization system for my old camper van. It is based on an Ai-Thinker A7 GPS & GSM module which is communicating over serial with an ESP32 Pico D4. For input & output I have added two buttons and an 0.96" OLED display, but the main idea is that the device can be control by a smartphone App. As you can see in the end of the video I'm using the Blynk 2.0 App which works great for several IoT projects, even for those which are communicating over mobile radio.
All in all the whole project is working fine, but for the next revision I have to optimize two things: 1. The GPS u.fl connector wasn't grounded properly which is a huge drawback in signal strength. Therefore the GPS quality is only acceptable in optimal conditions, even with a good GPS antenna. 2. The power path is not yet optimal. When the device is working a while, the battery looses capacity and cannot deliver enough energy for the power-hungry GSM module. This results in a ESP brownout when data is transmitted/received over mobile radio.
I'm very happy with the result of this project. The transparent solder mask looks beautiful in combination with the acrylic glass cover. There will be a second, probably smaller, version of this thing in the near future, optimize for the use inside my van. Maybe it will be a modular solution which can be stacked onto the VanMeter board - but we will see.

Kingroon was so kind and asked if I'm interested in the KP3S. It's a little budget friendly 3D-Printer with a build volume of 180x180x180mm. I said YES to the cooperation because of two facts: 1. It has a direct drive extruder which is perfectly for printing flexible filaments like TPU. I have a spool of TPU laying around for quite a while and I think there are several projects where I could use it. 2. It uses precision linear rails for both the x- and y-axis. Could get interesting for the smaller, more detailed prints.
As Kingroon has sent me this printer for free to try it and share my experiences I have to mark this as AD. I will share more content to this little device on my Instagram page!

The VanMeter is a little add on for my camper van for measuring the power consumption of up to four different things. Here I am using it to measure the power of all the loads in my van, the solar panel power and the power of the 230V charger. There is another channel which is currently unused - or as you can see in the end of the video, was used to measure the correct voltage (differential measurement) of the solar panel. Unfortunately I didn't find the solution so far, but I would be happy if you have a hint for me. There are two more things which I haven't shown in the video. The first thing is that I have used the ESP32Remote ( youtu.be/5vRy--YCx7k ) as a remote display next to the phone APP. The other thing is that the VanMeter can not only measure power consumption, but also is able to control up to eight different outputs. The pinheader on the right side of the PCB is optimized to be used with one of those eight channel relay boards. These can be used to control lights, outlets, pumps, heater elements or whatever you want. Something like a smartvan.
As you have probably noticed, this build is still a work in progress and some features are not yet implemented. Some other things will be added to this board in the future. So stay tuned!

Music from: epidemicsound.comXXL 7 segment display as a 100K FOLLOWERCOUNTER | makermoekoemaker.moekoe2020-12-14 | I've build a huge seven segment display to watch my Instagram followers hit the 100.000!
Base material is 19mm medium-density fibreboard (MDF) which I milled down to a simple one digit seven segment thingi. The WS2812 LEDs are cutted to little strings of 5 pieces to be put inside all the segments. To diffuse the light from the LEDs I got the best results with using two types of foam between the lights and the 3mm white acrylic glass. A single layer of 5mm foam and three layers of 1mm foam. The segments can be connected to those little 3D printed jacks on the backside of every segments. If I will need a new segment, I can just create a single one and add it to the display.
