Good luck with your PhD and let us know about the specific project you've been worked on, when it's over!
@@EspressifSystems The number one thing we would all like to see is a GREATLY reduced power consumption, for a much longer battery life. Second thing would be a better and less noisy ADC and its independence from WiFi usage (not losing pins if WiFi is on). Third thing would be PWM outputs going up to 100kHz with multi-phase capability and independent of code (hardware based for reliable running of multi-phase PWM converters).
Its not like you became a super saiyan now that you're doing PhD. You're still a PhD student, seen so many dumb PhD students unfortunately. Copying papers and changing a screw doesn't make you smart, sorry.
This is very impressive. Espressif is way ahead in the game than its competitors. Please guide us on how to use it alongside Wi-Fi in Arduino Framework.
Yup, some general guidance on best practice around use to the two in tandem would be handy. Case in point, I'd be interested in how best to manage a device that primarily uses wifi, but enable it to detect and talk to other (foreign to the wifi network) devices via ESP NOW, when they come near.
ESP-NOW has 5 years or more, ;-) I used this with my systems for years - works great. Now is simpler to use and has plenty of use ready function. Before I must write this myself
WOW, Esp-Now has come a long way, I have been using it for years as part of my home automation. I designed my own 6 and 9 button remote controlls and door sensors. I works fast and great battery life.
Fantastic !!!!!!!!!!! I have plenty of esp module (32 and 8266). And one of my project rely on rssi and distance. I'm going to study that in two week. Espressif clearly think like makers !!
Such a brilliant from Espressif. Btw I'm developing the ESP-Now protocol on my Final Test of College to Implement a Body-to-Body Network using ESP-Now to send several data from human's WBAN (3 sensors based on qSOFA Score on a Medical Terms) to the ESP32 through a Mesh Network. Wish me luck guys! And I hope ESP-Now can manage my idea on my Final Test with zero problems!
Отличный протокол. Подключается мгновенно, по MAC адресу можно вычислять, кто отправил пакет и отправить ответ. С трёх точек получал пакеты параллельно со скоростью тысячи пакетов с каждого устройства и это не предел. Работает стабильно. Не требует маршрутизатора. В общем одни плюсы. Можно организовать mesh-сеть. Рекомендую.
@@pr200sd Нет. может работать параллельно с Wi-Fi протоколом. Перед использованием я инициализирую контроллер в режиме клиента WiFi: WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA); И далее инциализирую ESP NOW: esp_now_init() Это лишь протокол а не физический канал, и идет работа с получаемыми данными заложенными функциями ESP. Если придут данные протокола Wi-Fi - они будут обработаны также функцией ESP. По сути все данные в диапазоне частот 2,4 Ггц анализируются контроллером, и если пакет предназначен конкретному устройству, то оно принимает пакет, отправляет ответ о принятом пакете, выделяет данные из него и отдает их определенной функции. Тут просто другая функция обработки данных, поэтому все происходит быстрее. Если бы у нас была возможность работы напрямую с радиоканалом ESP, то мы бы смогли создать собственный протокол связи и работать по нему.
can you please provide some example code for the binding process of two or more device. I think holding a button to bind devices are really convenient, rather than finding each MAC address and updating them via code....overall, thanks, great vid

Is it possible to create a network without router? Basically one of the ESP device needs to act as AP and rest should make a mesh out of it. The mobile will then connect via the AP and control the devices. Is it possible?
I'd be really great(and maybe you already have this?) if you could combine ESP-NOW with a sensor oriented WiFi silicon. E.g. a ESP chipset that can be powered by a CR2032 that can burst out ESP-NOW packets. Most of your current silicon can't seem to do this because it doesn't seem to support simple ultra fast wakeup & sleep while persisting memory. Espressif could be one of the few if any vendors that can do sensors on WiFi effectively. You could bridge the gap of ultra low power & high throughput with a single wireless protocol.
E.g. many BLE/ZB chipset can wakeup & transmit a packet on the order of 1ms-3ms and then jump into ~1-5uA sleep while persisting ram. Tx/Rx currents are ~50mA with a MCU current of around ~1-5mA
