Developing IoT Projects with ESP32

ESP32, a low-cost and energy-efficient system-on-a-chip microcontroller, has become the backbone of numerous WiFi devices, fueling IoT innovation. This book offers a holistic approach to building an IoT system from the ground up, ensuring secure data communication from sensors to cloud platforms, empowering you to create production-grade IoT solutions using the ESP32 SoC.

Starting with IoT essentials supported by real-world use cases, this book takes you through the entire process of constructing an IoT device using ESP32. Each chapter introduces new dimensions to your IoT applications, covering sensor communication, the integration of prominent IoT libraries like LittleFS and LVGL, connectivity options via WiFi, security measures, cloud integration, and the visualization of real-time data using Grafana. Furthermore, a dedicated section explores AI/ML for embedded systems, guiding you through building and running ML applications with tinyML and ESP32-S3 to create state-of-the-art embedded products.

This book adopts a hands-on approach, ensuring you can start building IoT solutions right from the beginning. Towards the end of the book, you'll tackle a full-scale Smart Home project, applying all the techniques you've learned in real-time.

key features
Build IoT projects from scratch using ESP32 * Customize solutions, take them to cloud, visualize real-time data, implement security features * Practice using a variety of hands-on projects such as an audio player, smart home, and more
approach
This book has a hands-on approach to learning; each topic is explored with practical examples. Background information is provided at the beginning of each chapter before delving into the examples. For each example, the goal is outlined, the required materials are listed and the setup is explained, before demonstrating the running code. At the end of each example there is a Troubleshooting section in case the reader needs extra help when running the code. Further reading is provided at the end of each chapter where extra information may be helpful.

The sections end with a complete project to demonstrate how a real-life project would look. Although they cannot count as final products, they lay out the fundamentals of IoT application design and development practices by explaining and implementing the key principles.
audience
If you are an embedded software developer, an IoT software architect or developer, a technologist, or anyone who wants to learn how to use ESP32 and its applications, this book is for you.

A basic understanding of embedded systems, programming, networking, and cloud computing concepts is necessary to get started with the book.
