This course is designed for people who have a basic understanding of Arduino and want to learn how to add internet connectivity to their projects. The course covers everything from setting up the WiFi connection to sending data over the web. By the end of this course, students will be able to build projects that can communicate with the outside world using the internet.
Introduction: Adding WiFi capabilities to Arduino boards is a great way to add web connectivity to your projects. While using an Arduino WiFi shield can be costly and complex, this course will teach you how to use an alternative board that is cheaper, faster, and easier to set up. This board plugs into your Arduino and provides a WiFi interface, allowing you to access websites, send data to the internet, and more.
Advantages of This Course:
- Easily add web connectivity to your Arduino boards.
- Control your projects remotely and unlock new possibilities.
- The ESP8266 WiFi module is a complete Wi-Fi network adapter that connects easily to any microcontroller-based design using its Serial Communication or UART interface.
Why You Should Take This Course:
- Learn how to add WiFi to Arduino UNO.
- Connect your Arduino to the internet using the ESP8266 WiFi Module.
- Understand the components required and set up a connection.
- Start your own projects immediately and learn at your own pace.
- Discover a better and cheaper alternative to an Arduino board with built-in WiFi and Bluetooth.
Course Process: The course covers various ways to communicate with ESP8266, including sending and receiving data via the internet and uploading data regularly. Learn how to interface with Arduino wirelessly using your phone (Android or iPhone) without needing an internet connection. The ESP8266 will act as an Access Point (AP Mode), giving other devices access to the Wi-Fi network and connecting them to a wired network.
Simulated Boards:
- Arduino boards
- Arduino clones
- ESP8266, ESP32
- Raspberry Pi
- Teensy
- Femto IO
- Controllino, Goldilocks Analogue, FreeSoC2, chipKIT, micro:bit, Maple Mini, and other Arduino clones
Programming Without Coding: Learn to program the Arduino board without writing a single line of code. Simply drag and drop to construct any Arduino device. Additionally, learn to use other modules such as Bluetooth, SPI, I2C, graphical LCDs, and stepper motors.
Client Applications: If you're familiar with building mobile apps, web apps, web services, or web development, you can create client applications that send TCP requests to ESP. Examples include Remote Control, Web Control Panel, ChatBot, Push the Button app, and more.
