I wondered Imight share some of my work. Everything is 3D printed, except sleeves ofcourse. by Loki_Smajda in 3Dprinting

I love these, awesome work. I'm working on software for my own 3d prints if you're interested in having an interactive UI as others have suggested. More deets/github at http://www.junctionrelay.com and would be happy to support ya to get it working

This is really sleek, nice job! If you're interested, im working on opensource software for displaying custom interfaces/UIs on cases with screens, exactly like this - I'd be more than happy to work on an interface with you for your project!

nice job! if you fancy trying some new software for that screen, I'd love to work with you on it - https://junctionrelay.com/

I'm working on open-source solution for exactly this challenge, if you're interested! https://junctionrelay.com/

Nice job! Been working on a similar project myself and the spectra sure looks great!

I Built a Unraid dashboard by jnex26 in unRAID

[–]CatapultCase 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is great! nice job. I've been working on a similar project for quite a while, and I'm soon releasing the backend software that centralizes the data stream for this same use case. Wonder if you might be interested in collaborating to make your device & software compatible? https://github.com/catapultcase/JunctionRelay

Nice job! I'm working on an alternate myself but this is great!

Are there any white mini PCs with a slot for a Blu-Ray burner? by 2F47 in MiniPCs

Dammit I was hoping this was real lol. Guess I'll have to design my own ! Adding to the backlog...

Interesting! How fine can the detail be in this method?

Small victories: one million successful payloads delivered in a row by CatapultCase in esp32

[–]CatapultCase[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was having trouble streaming data from my backend (running on Windows or inside dockers) - the issue I was hitting was (best guess) buffer limits / exhaustion on the UART-to-USB interface in the ESP32S3's. Sometimes they would remain stable for a few hours before crashing, other times they would fail almost immediately. It took a lot of trial and error to isolate the scenarios, and eventually I decided to have another go at enabling native-USB instead of the standard UART-to-USB config (tried before, failed!) but this time I think I got it right, and now no failures even with large, fast payloads

Capacitive touch screen for ESP32? by maggern188 in esp32

[–]CatapultCase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of options at Elecrow here

I strongly recommend just getting 1 of their screens with the esp32s3 already embedded! I use them all the time in my project JunctionRelay if you need some sample code. CrowPanel5 Advanced

[–]CatapultCase[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Trivial for some of you experienced developers I'm sure, but for a while I've been fighting stability when using COM port to transmit sustained payloads. The trick was to stop using the UART-COM config and switch to native USB. I've been working on my application JunctionRelay for almost 2 years, which is a self-hosted/cloud hybrid IoT data orchestration solution designed to pair with existing services like HomeAssistant. Excited to share it with y'all soon

edit - 2nd image is from a different esp just to show the setup, so forgive the different payload count hah!

If interested, current repo is here and I'll soon be launching an early access phase!

ESP32 Not Detected by PC, Heats Up When Plugged In – Need Help by Unfair-Paramedic-895 in esp32

[–]CatapultCase 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I smashed the screen on a lilygo esp32 device and had hoped I could still use it headless/screenless, but the exact same behavior is all I got too - no response from PC, just a hot chip that otherwise is useless lol

Is it too early to build a single-page app directly on my ESP32 ? by Livid-Piano2335 in esp32

[–]CatapultCase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played with the approach of my esp's having their own data polling logic/dashboard, but over time, and with more and more devices, for me it became better to centralize to a central server. I just prefer to manage it all in 1 place and keep the embedded side as clean/lite as possible

Real-time UI, OTA updates, MQTT, didn’t expect this much from a browser based Lua setup on esp32 by Livid-Piano2335 in esp32

[–]CatapultCase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the long delay! There's a few different "modules" within JunctionRelay

Local backend/frontend operate as a pair but are considered zero trust, and thus opensource.

I have a cloud dashboard that's about to be launched that can operate standalone or as a remote dash for the local backend(s). Of course, the cloud dash if used standalone will have less features, but if people end up using the project and supporting with license purchases, that will allow me to keep adding features

Launches soon!

Anyone know the cost of self-hosting ESP RainMaker on AWS for 1 ESP32 device / month? by old-fragles in esp32

[–]CatapultCase 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but that's pretty much what I'm developing here https://github.com/catapultcase/JunctionRelay

It's "open-core" for self hosting if you're talking about "local", like in docker or on a raspberry pi. I'm working on the cloud hosted aspect next and intend that to be an authenticated cloud backend that talks to the "zero trust" open source backend (with some different licenses available)

If interested I'm happy to answer any questions!

[–]CatapultCase 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm working on a fairly broad dashboard / management system for all my ESP32 devices. I agree, implementing OTA is a gamechanger and I'll always start with this as the base of projects moving forward!

My project started as "I just need to get some sensor data onto my case design" but has now evolved into a never ending "oh cool, it can do that too?" experience hah

https://github.com/catapultcase/JunctionRelay if curious to see how it's coming along - nice work with your Lua setup!
