Slow Arduino IDE with ESP-32 Devices

March 28, 2022 Patrick Gilfeather

There is a noticeable difference on how long it takes for a sketch for the ESP-32 to compile when using a Windows based system, versus using a Linux based system. Depending on the sketch, this difference can be up to 10 times, which could frustrate developers. The suggestions online point to anti virus as the cause, with disabling the anti virus or adding exceptions as the workaround. Others recommend using Visual Studio instead of the Arduino IDE. This post will…

Visualizing Data with Processing

December 28, 2021 Patrick Gilfeather

The purpose of this post is to demonstrate how to use Processing to present data in a visual way. The methods used in this post will be based on the work done by M.Furkan Bahat. Source – https://mfurkanbahat.blogspot.com/2014/11/artificial-horizon-and-compass-using.html The hardware used in this demonstration will be the following: GY-521 MPU6050 Arduino Uno ESP32-Cam ESP32-USB-Module Patch wiring USB cables Windows 10 laptop The MPU6050 is connected to the Arduino Uno using the following pin connections, as shown in the images below….

Data-sheets, the devil in the details

June 17, 2021 Patrick Gilfeather

Finding a suitable and reliable power supply for a project seems trivial to most. The battery selection is typically one of the common types available at stores. However, if you have a project that needs to run on battery, that choice will influence its overall use. The first question to ask is, what are the components of the project. These can range from discrete components to boards or modules requiring varying supply voltages. As the number of components increase, so…
