Introduction:
In this project, you will learn how to control home objects over WIFI witha software called Snap (Blocs programming like Scratch) We will control a lamp. We will not write code, just snap blocks together.
STEP 1:
Our lamp will be connected to a relay. The relay is connected to an ESP8266. Before starting the project, you need to follow these videos to get familiar with the board and the programming too:
STEP 2:
STEP 3:
Once you finished your project, think about improving it by:
- Using more objects to control
- designing a dashboard with SNAP! to control your home.
I am Adel Kassah, a computer science teacher in middle school from Tunisia. Now, I am working in the UAE (ABU DHABI) I try to promote coding culture in my country and around the world. I run after school club about programming to kids. I teach them how to make their own games, their own Android App. They learn how to program embedded system and Robotics. I also cooperate with association around Tunisia and share my expertise. I develop my own tool or improve existing one. I made several presentation in conferences about Technology and coding. Lately I was interested about the world of Internet of Things. I made a tool TUNIOT that makes easy programming the NODEMCU board.
My blog is a place where I share my experience to the world.
