From dashsbuttons to the final ESP32-C3 based Picoclick-C3. A long road of designing, testing and optimizing this device has reached an end.
The Picoclicks are WiFi connected buttons for the internet of things. They can send messages which perform different actions in your smart home or the world wide web. But the Picoclick-C3 has become more than just an IOT-button. Due to its extension port it can be used as a tiny development board. It can communicate with other I2C devices like shown in the video, but the external GPIOs can be used in several different ways. More over this Picoclick can be activate by an external source (and not the button itself) which implies tons of new possibilities.
The extension boards for the Picoclick can be very useful. I've only showed one of them in this video, but two others are already in the lab and five more are already designed and ready for production. What extension board do you think of? Which useful application can be added to this tiny device? Write your suggestions in the comments below! :)
