Acquire hands-on knowledge and technical skills for designing and developing aesthetically appealing, interactive devices using ESP32, Arduino, and SNAP circuits with M5Stack CoreKey FeaturesLearn ESP32 microcontroller and M5Stack Core development platform with hands-on projectsCreate aesthetically appealing visuals for technology engagement using the M5Stack Core deviceBuild interactive devices using Arduino and SNAP circuits with the M5Stack Core development platformBook DescriptionAs an embedded systems developer or an IoT developer, you can often face challenges in maintaining focus on prototyping a product concept while using a specific high-level programming language for implementation. To overcome these challenges, the M5Stack Core platform uses an ESP32 microcontroller and block code that allows you to focus on product creation and application instead of the high-level programming language. M5Stack Electronics Blueprints presents various design and prototyping approaches as well as UI layout and electronics interfacing techniques that will help you to become skilled in developing useful products effectively.This book takes you through a hands-on journey for a better understanding of the ESP32 microcontroller and the M5Stack Core's architecture. You'll delve into M5Stack Core topics such as electronic units, light, sound, motion devices, interfacing circuits, SNAP circuit kits, Arduino applications, and building Bluetooth and Wi-Fi IoT devices. Further, you'll explore various M5Stack core applications using a project-based learning method, including the fascinating 32-bit microcontroller device technology.By the end of this book, you'll be able to design and build interactive, portable electronic controllers, IoT, and wearable devices using the M5Stack Core.What you will learnDesign user interfaces using no-code/low code programming languagesPrototype electronic controllers for audio alarms swiftlyWire an M5Stack Core 2 to an Arduino Uno or equivalent to build a touch control relay controllerPrototype Bluetooth IoT controllers efficientlyBuild and code Wi-Fi sniffers and scanner gadgetsPrototype wearable devices with easeCreate ESP32 applications using system block diagram designBuild a DC motor controller operated by a M5Stack Core unitWho this book is forThis book is for practicing embedded systems and IoT developers, electronics and automation technicians, STEM technical educators, students, and hobbyists looking to learn about the ESP32 microcontroller and M5Stack technologies. There is no prerequisite – apart from a desire to learn about ESP32-based electronics and interactive devices, then this book is for you.

Dr. Don Wilcher is an Electrical Engineer, Engineering-Technical Education Educator, Embedded Systems Lecturer and Electronics book author. He has worked on plant industrial robotics, control systems, and designed automotive interior electronic systems and consumer appliances when employed at General Motors, Chrysler Corporation, Usui International Corporation, and Sumitomo Wiring Systems since 1986. While employed at Hunter Fan, he researched and developed LED light fixtures and wireless motor controls as well as an electronics control unit to reduce 300 watts of lighting power to 180 watts without a noticeable drop in illumination. He was also the former Department Chair for the School of Electronics Technology of ITT Technical Institute at the Madison, AL campus.Dr. Don Wilcher has a bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering from Wayne State University, and Master of Science in Education Innovation and Technology (Graduation with Distinguish), and Doctor of Education degrees, both from Capella University.
