  • WMATA Metro Train Status

  • An ESP8266 will control a neopixel ring (metro line), 7-segment LED (arrival time), and 20x4 LCD screen (station updates).An Adafruit Huzzah programmed with the Arduino Software using and FTDI cable will attempt to connect to the wifi network specified...
  • Sticking with Arduino - for now

  • Did seriously consider switching from Arduino to ESP8266 with program space as no 1 reason. After thinking about it for a while I decided to stick with arduino despite the limit of 32k program space. Reasons are mostly the time it will take to do the...

  • Lets do it

  • For communication to the module we are using Arduino IDE, it's simple and it has a Serial monitor. We first need to install the ESP board so the software recognizes our board (If you have not already installed Arduino IDE you can go HERE and install...
  • Yet another description of where I do not want to be

  • Here are a couple pictures of R2, the latest, greatest version. Compare it to R1 on the right. The largest glaring difference, as I hinted at in the last log, is that I put a PIC microcontroller on there.  It has an open source USB stack, plenty...
  • The Plan

  • The plan for now is to create a development board with the ESP12F module on it, and one of the USB-enabled microcontrollers. The board would have a special "files" button on it. If started without the button pressed, the microcontroller will act as a...
