Robotics

Design, build, program, play…

Click here to learn how to use the ESP32 to create circuits and build robotics projects. Use the step-by-step instructions build circuits and learn how to write the code necessary to get your electronics projects working. Projects include blinking LEDs, controlling 7-segment displays, connecting to an LCD module using I²C, using servo motors, DC motors and building line following robots with IR sensors. The site also includes STL files for 3D printing for some of the projects.
