Ok I found this ESP32-S3 with a 0.42 inch display module. I was thinking what I can make with it.
One idea that keeps coming back to me is a short messaging device with a friend.
Basic idea is me and my fren will have 2 esp32-s3 with oled modules connected to our devices and my code will subscribe us to the MQTT topic independently without any software interruption required. And there will be a small python app thing which will let us type and send messages to each others esp32.
you can literally connect it to any powersupply and it will work. Receiving message is independent of any software middleman. You literally plug it to a wall charger and u will still receive messages. To send message you will use the python desktop app which talks to the MQTT broker.
I think it will be a really cool expandable project with not just messages but with more stuff. like having a timer. it can literally show you your notifications the possibilities are endless. But for starters I will make it simple messaging thing between me and my friend.
I will document the whole process and make a video on it too cuz NOW I HAVE A REALLY GOOD MIC. The purpose of the project is nothing. Its not a we go commercial with this project it's just something I thought could be made and now I wanna see if I can actually make it.
I am using ESP32-S3 dev board with 0.42 inch OLED
I am using Mosquitto for server communication. MQTT broker kinda works like a post office it holds all ur ping under ur name so u get a gateway to fetch it from
It is still in bit of planning phase I just had the Idea not really sure where I will go with this But if it works I will make a cool video out of it.
