Adafruit IoT Monthly: Mailbox Bot, Wireless MIDI, and more!
IoT Projects
Solar-powered MailboxBot
An internet-connected camera takes daily pictures of the inside of fhuable’s mailbox and uploads them to an FTP server. - fhu-space
WeatherBot - 3D Printable Weather Forecasting Theater
An internet-connected weather machine that displays the current forecast using a miniature diorama - hackaday
ML Weather Station Predicts Future Air Quality
A DIY weather station that uses machine learning to predict future air quality readings. - hackaday
Home Applications Prototype
Bakken & Bæck developed a “technical prototype for a collection of apps which would allow you to teach your old furniture some new tricks, which you could then control to suit your own personal needs at your leisure.” - everydayexperiments
Off-Grid Raspberry Pi Pocket Cloud Server
A Raspberry Pi Zero W is turned into a portable off-grid NAS storage solution. - instructables
Wireless MIDI with nRF24L01
A hack to send MIDI data over nRF24L01 radio modules. This may be useful for artists who are limited by physical MIDI cables in their performances. - hackaday
Off-grid LoRa Communicator
“I started this project because I often travel in convoy with friends to remote areas where sending a simple WhatsApp message is impossible due to non-existent cell phone signal.” - hackaday
TshWatch, ESP32 Watch
An ESP32 e-ink watch with a real-time clock, skin temperature monitoring, pedometer, air humidity, and pressure sensors. - hackster
IoT News and More!
WiFiWire – a I2C to UDP Bridge
WiFiWire provides a Wire (i2c) protocol able to communicate over AsyncUDP. You can have your program use a Wire (i2c) sensor/device, but it is communicating over a network rather than wiring. - Adafruit Blog
Cloning the AirTag
An experiment to develop an AirTag-clone. - positive.security
Adafruit.io, the IoT Platform for Everyone
Sign up for our IoT Platform, Adafruit IO (for free!) by clicking this link. We don’t have investors and we’re not going to sell your data. When you sign up for Adafruit IO+, you’re supporting the same Adafruit Industries whose hardware and software you already know and love! You help make sure we’re not going anywhere by letting us know we’re on the right track.
Support Adafruit
Here at Adafruit, we sell all of these amazing components, but we couldn’t find a good way to interact with them over the Internet. So, we decided to create our own IoT platform, and that’s Adafruit IO. It’s built from the ground up to be easy to use and platform agnostic (connect any development board or device!). For those who want to get a project off the ground without programming - Adafruit IO offers a No-Code interface for building IoT electronics projects using WipperSnapper, our open-source IoT firmware. Support Adafruit’s open-source development by subscribing to Adafruit IO Plus, the upgraded, all-systems-go version of the Adafruit IO service.
