The @EspressifSystem ESP32-S3 is quite the beast when it comes to #aiot #edgecomputing. Running the @TensorFlow lite person detection example it achieves more than 16FPS with hardware neural engine support! Without NN engine it goes down to 2.7FPS...

Many thanks to @hackaday for featuring my blog post! https://t.co/dKe0KB6si1

It is very satisfying when all the pieces come together and they just click. In hindsight the design might have been a bit inspired by the Palm III Dock :-). Good design is eternal!

[ThingPulse @thingpulse]

Another sneak preview of the #ESP32-S3 Color Kit Pro with dock. The calculator UI is made with @LVGL and has a double life as USB keyboard when connected to a PC or Mac. Perfect hardware for a macro keyboard or password manager!

Looking for a weekend project that's sure to spark your creativity? Great news—the ESP32 Color Kit Grande is back in stock! A huge shoutout to Soubir from Australia and Charles from the US for their awesome reviews. https://t.co/TrlzJgFZtW

[ThingPulse @thingpulse]

Our ePulse Feather C6 has been featured in the latest edition of the German @MakeMagazinDE! Thank you for the honor! https://t.co/dEbR75N07F

[ThingPulse @thingpulse]

Sneak preview: still a prototype but we‘re happy about the direction! ⁦@EspressifSystem⁩ ESP32-S3, 320x480 display, up to 60fps, LiPo battery, battery gauge. Applications: home automation, weather display, spotify controller, Wifi marauder, macro keyboard etc

[ThingPulse @thingpulse]

Testing our latest prototype: @EspressifSystem @ESP32-S3, 320x480 3.5“ display, 16bit parallel bus, #lovyangfx, @LVGL demo. Amazing smooth display rendering and excellent capacitive touch interface

[ThingPulse @thingpulse]

The @esp32 Color Kit Grande Starter Kit is back on stock and now comes with a illustrated step-by-step guide. This is a great project for a rainy weekend!

All three applications are cool, but the WiFi Networking Dongle impressed me the most! @EspressifSystem #esp32

[ThingPulse @thingpulse]

3 Spicy Applications for our upcoming #ESP32-S3 Pendrive: WiFi Disk, Bad USB Device and WiFi Networking Dongle. The device comes in an USB dongle enclosure, has 128MB of NAND flash and a capacitive touch button to trigger actions.

And this bad boy can run Ducky Scripts… Scary how easy it is to create a Bad USB device…

[Daniel Eichhorn @squix78]

@optoio @highvis_supply You are both right: this is a male plug working as a sink. Male USB-C plugs are not symmetrical, the CC pull down resistor is only required or even allowed on one pin, as well as D+ and D-:

Learn something valuable every day! Can you spot the mistake why this ESP32-S3 pen drive wouldn't power up? Hint 1: The first photo of the PCB reveals the brute force fix. Hint 2: the RPi4 designers initially made a similar mistake like me 😀

[Daniel Eichhorn @squix78]

Bounty: if I like your PR you get an ePulse Feather C6! Solution shouldn't be too hacky!

[Daniel Eichhorn @squix78]

Certainly the community is smarter than an individual! Just published sample projects for the @thingpulse ESP32-C6 epulse Feather C6 board. Regular code works in VS Code/ platformio, but can't get the zigbee bulb samples to work with Arduino/3.0.0 alpha

[Daniel Eichhorn @squix78]

And to be a bit more specific, the zigbee libraries can't be found. I tried to add esp-zigbee-sdk as dependency, but then other files cannot be found...
Any idea?

.@thingpulse ePulse Feather C6 is a new #esp32-C6 development board optimized for #lowpower consumption in deep sleep, with LiPo #Battery support, and following the #adafruit Feather form factor.

[Daniel Eichhorn @squix78]

This is our first product with the MAX17048 Fuel Gauge chip. The chip measures LiPo voltage and reports the remaining battery energy via I2C as % to the ESP32-C6. This works surprisingly well! Now I'm looking for an interesting Zigbee demo project. Any hints?

[ThingPulse @thingpulse]

Our new ESP32-C6 board is ready for order! It supports WiFi 6, BLE 5, Zigbee, Thread and Matter. And it comes with a fancy battery gauge to report the remaining energy via I2C to the ESP32-C6!

I printed an enclosure for the @thingpulse Color Kit Grande on my @Elegoo_Official Mars 3 Resin Printer. Looks really slick, I think!

@regnerischerTag @platformio Not only Zigbee seems to be work in progress for the ESP-C6 on Arduino. Support in esp-idf is better…

[Daniel Eichhorn @squix78]

While testing the hardware we realized that software/platform support is far from being comleted. But there are workarounds to compile it on @platformio with Arduino framework. Eager to test the Zigbee examples!

[ThingPulse @thingpulse]

Fresh on the test bench: the ePulse Feather C6! It comes with an @EspressifSystem ESP32-C6-Mini module and is a real communication talent: WiFi 6 (2.4GHz), BLE, ZigBee and Thread. And it is following the @adafruit Feather form factor. Stay tuned for more!
