🤔 What is ESP-NOW?
ESP-NOW is a communication protocol developed by Espressif Systems specifically for ESP8266 and ESP32 microcontrollers. It enables fast and efficient data transmission between devices without the need for a traditional Wi-Fi connection, making it perfect for scenarios where low latency and minimal power consumption are crucial.

tip: to avoid looking for MAC and recompilation for other modules, use fake MAC address instead of built in tip 2: on_sent() and on_receive() should be very fast commands (so no drawing) to avoid problems - better to set the flag in on_receive() and process it out of this callback function

@arlo4051 6 месяцев назад

Makes me want to dive into creating something that would use it ,like a weather station maybe. I love your subtle sense of humor. Thanks again for another informative video.

@michaelbishton9439 6 месяцев назад

To date, I think your most informative and best presentations have been about demystifying sprites. But you always just showed the results on the screen and then just told people to look at your code. Now that you are explaining things, I suggest that you go back to explaining - and covering in an organized manner - how the display functions work. This would help us understand how to build more dynamic displays for areas like avionics, engines, and automation where we don't have fixed parameters.

You can also get the mac adress when you just upload any sketch (even with empty setup() and loop() functions). Just look at esptool messages that will be printed in terminal before the flashing begins. But also you can emulate any mac adress whitout using the hardware build in mac. The second option is to use broadcast mode, where you do not need a mac adress of receiver

@VolosProjects 6 месяцев назад

thank you, yes you are right, i finded it. i will check brodcast mode , tnx again.

@ivovass195 6 месяцев назад

Yes, great continuation from previous video, combined I believe one can have a simple esp32 device connected with sensors and send the readings to a second one with display. Definitely many possibilities for espnow. Thanks for sharing

@62f100 6 месяцев назад

Great video !! Love to see a few more espnow examples. For me I want to take canbus info into main esp32 & send it out to 3 or 4 display with guages. Look at adafruit qualia 4" round for main display. Always look forward to your videos.

@@VolosProjects yesterday built my first real life ESP NOW project. A remote control for a fan to control fan speed. It just switches relays to control the speed. Works perfectly! And the best bit was that chatgpt wrote all the code and it worked first time. Amazing ;-)

@k98killer 17 дней назад

Methinks that the way to get MAC addresses for a real application will be to broadcast a beacon on start and then periodically. Any listener will then add the peer if the beacon packet was valid and the peer hadn't been added yet. Peers can then send their own beacon packets directly to the new peer.

@Jackie-sg8es 6 месяцев назад

Very cool and great code explanation. I plan to use your M5 stack core 2 voltmeter code with a M5 stick (or Lilygo T display S3 pro) to remotely display readings from the core 2. With these videos and code that you’ve created, I am sure I can put it together or at least have fun trying. Thanks for all of this content.

Hi Volos, I stumbled upon your ESP NOW video recently, and I must say, your work and code are truly commendable! 👏👏 The clarity in your explanations made it so much easier for me to dive into this topic. I'm currently working on a project involving ESP NOW, and one concern I have is regarding heat generation during usage. Have you noticed any significant heating issues, especially during extended operation? Your insights would be incredibly valuable. Also, if you have any recommendations based on your experience, I'm all ears! By the way, I run a channel where I share my own projects, and I'm eager to showcase how your content has influenced my work. Would love to discuss this further if you're open to it. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge, and looking forward to more great content from your channel! Best regards, Creative Electronics Studio

@TheTriangle2012 6 месяцев назад

Oh, and one more thing, how much current do these Lilygo gadgets draw with this particular screen drawn and no WiFi or BT enabled? If it's more than 100 mA, don't bother measuring but please guess freely on how much more, I won't hold your word for it... Thanks man, I appreciate it!

@IvanVoras 5 месяцев назад

These are devices with the standard ESP32 module antennas? Did you test the range of transmission, at least in the open space?

@VolosProjects 5 месяцев назад

in open spaca they are more than 100m , but walls reduce range drasticly.

the ESP-NOW libraries are riddled with bugs so don't be surprised when something spontaneously breaks on you.

Hi VOLOS , QUICK Question.... can i use lcd_setRotation(1) ; sprite.createSprite(536, 240); inside the code and on runtime sometime to go back to lcd_setRotation(0) sprite.createSprite(240,536); i am trying to do it but the graphics are scrambled

Hi, imam pitanje. Ja imam projekt Cocktail Mixera, upravlja ga ESP32 D1. Za kontrolu sam napravio WEB UI. Sad bi htio napraviti kontroliranje na daljinu pomoću drugog modula. Dali je to moguće?

@VolosProjects 5 месяцев назад

Ako ti kažem dal dobijem koktel? :) Šalim se , pretpostavljam da je web interface izveden samo lokalno, ako zelis kontrolirati sa druge mreže mislim da ćem morati koristii neki oblak. Ja sam davno koristio Blynk, a dobar je i arduino IOT cloud. Iskreno namam bas iskustva sa ovakvim projektima ali nadam se da će ti ovo pomoći. Pozdrav.

@cviki21 5 месяцев назад

@@VolosProjects ja se izvinjavam, ali ja sam budala i to žešća. Umjesto da napravim najjednostavniji način ja ga kompliciram. Sve treba biti na lokalnoj mreži tako da nema potrebe za cloud rješenjima. Danas sam shvatio da mi je najlakše staviti Push ili Touch Button i temeljiti operacije na tome koliko puta ga pritisnem. Hvala na odgovoru svejedno!

@MaxSMoke777 6 месяцев назад

It's just wifi, right? It's not LORA.

@VolosProjects 6 месяцев назад

Not Lora, for lora we need aditional hardware

@nikthefix8918 6 месяцев назад

It uses the lower parts of the wifi stack - stripping off all the IP stuff. Very efficient and peer-to-peer. Much like the comms used when you have a 2.4GHz mouse/keyboard with a wireless USB dongle. Better than Bluetooth if you need range. Better than 433Mhz if you need reliable xfer with handshaking. Perfect for remote control if you like ESP. Very low latency. Simple coding. Ultra-low-power. 250 bytes per packet but many packets can be sent per second.
