Project 3 – Logging, Monitoring, and Controlling using ESP32
In this chapter, we will start another exciting journey to explore the capabilities of the ESP32 microcontroller in the realm of home automation and monitoring. The mission of this chapter is to demonstrate how ESP32 can be harnessed to enhance the convenience, security, and efficiency of your daily life.
Our focus will be on logging, monitoring, and controlling various aspects of your home using the versatile ESP32 platform. We’ll deploy sensors in key areas such as the kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, and living room to collect valuable data. This data will be efficiently stored in an InfluxDB database, providing a robust foundation for analysis and monitoring.
The heart of our monitoring system lies in Grafana, a powerful tool that allows us to visualize and gain insights from the data collected. We’ll delve into the technical aspects of setting up Grafana, creating informative dashboards, and setting...
