In this guide, you’ll learn what the ESP32 is, why it’s better than Arduino for modern DIY projects, and how Techsage’s Innovator Box leverages the power of ESP32 to make learning electronics both fun and futuristic

Introduction to ESP32 for Beginners: Why It's the Future of DIY Electronics

If you're just starting your journey into electronics and circuit building, you've probably heard the term "breadboard" being thrown around.

What is a Breadboard and How Does it Work? A Beginner's Guide

In this project, we’ll connect an LED to an ESP32 using a breadboard and jumper wires to make it blink. This is a perfect beginner project to understand basic GPIO pin functionality on the ESP32.

Project 1: Getting Started with ESP32

This project demonstrates how to use an LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) to detect light levels and control an LED. When the light level falls below a certain threshold, the LED turns on, and when it rises above the threshold, the LED turns off.

Project 2: Automated Night Light Using LDR

This project demonstrates how to use an ESP32 with an LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) module, a laser module, and a buzzer to create a simple security system. The system detects changes in light intensity using the LDR and triggers an alarm when the light beam is interrupted.

Project 3: Laser Tripwire using Laser Module and LDR

This project demonstrates how to use an ESP32, an ultrasonic sensor (HC-SR04), a buzzer, and an I2C LCD to create a proximity alert system. The system continuously measures distance using the ultrasonic sensor, displays it on an LCD, and triggers a buzzer when an object comes too close.

Project 4: Distance Alert Display Using Ultrasonic Sensor & LCD

In this tutorial, we will create a simple circuit and code that shows a message on an LCD screen when a button is pressed. The message toggles between two different texts on the LCD each time the button is pressed.

Project 5: Dino Game on LCD

In this tutorial, we will create a simple web server using the ESP32 that allows us to control two LEDs from a smartphone or any device connected to the Wi-Fi network. This project does not use resistors, as we are directly connecting the LEDs to the ESP32.

Project 6: ESP32 Wi-Fi Led Control Tutorial

In this tutorial, you'll create a wireless servo motor controller using an ESP32. You'll be able to control a servo motor through a web interface on your phone or computer - no external WiFi network needed!

Project 7 :  Servo Control Wirelessly

This project creates a radar system using an ESP32 microcontroller, ultrasonic sensor, servo motor, and a visual display on your computer. The radar sweeps in a 180-degree arc, detecting objects and displaying them on a colorful radar screen - just like in movies!

Project 8 : Ultrasonic Radar using Servo and ESP32

This project uses an ESP32, an IR sensor, and an I2C LCD to count the number of objects passing in front of the sensor. It includes debouncing for accuracy, serial commands for testing and resetting, and a real-time LCD display.

Project 9 : IR Sensor Object Counter with ESP32 &  LCD

In this tutorial, we will build an RC car that can be controlled via a Wi-Fi-based web interface using an ESP32. The car will have forward, backward, left, and right movement controls, along with a speed control slider.

Have you ever wanted to build a robot
 car that can drive on its own and avoid obstacles like a mini 
self-driving car? 🚙✨ In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to build an object avoidance robot car using an ESP32, L298N motor driver, and an ultrasonic sensor.
This project is perfect for beginners who want to start exploring robotics and coding in a fun and hands-on way!

Car Project 2 : Object Avoidance Robot Car

Want to control LEDs using just your hand gestures - like turning ON a light with an open palm or switching it OFF with a fist?
In this tutorial, you'll 
learn how to use your webcam, Python, and ESP32 (without internet!) to 
control LEDs with real-time hand gesture recognition using MediaPipe and socket communication.

AI x IoT Project 1 : Gestures Recognition LED control using mediapipe

Have you ever dreamed of controlling gadgets using just your voice—like Iron Man? In this tutorial, we’ll show you how to control an LED using voice commands via your computer's microphone and an ESP32 board. It's a fun and beginner-friendly IoT project combining Python, Speech Recognition, and serial communication with an ESP32 microcontroller.

AI x IoT Project 2 : Voice-Controlled LED with ESP32 and Python

Welcome, Innovators! In this project, we'll bridge the gap between the physical and digital worlds by creating a system that recognizes simple sign language gestures using your computer's webcam and displays the translated text on an LCD screen powered by an ESP32.
This project is a fantastic introduction to computer vision with Python, microcontroller communication, and hardware interfacing. Let's get started!
