Connecting DIY IoT projects to IFTTT

Finally managed to connect my temperature and humidity sensor to IFTTT.
Now I can make my device tweet, post to Google Plus, post to Facebook, write to Google Drive, control a fan ...... and do many cool things.

I have written an article on my website on this : http://ashishware.com/IotTweetbot.shtml

Wifi enabled OLED display using ESP8266 and NodeMCU

My second IoT  project,  a web enabled 0.96 OLED display. This project uses a ESP8266 (NodeMCU firmware) and a 0.96'' monochrome OLED . I have created a HTML based web interface which allows sending text and graphics to the display.

This display is portable and runs  on 4 AA batteries and can be used in many interesting ways.

Here is the link to a video showing off capabilities of the display:

Wifi network detector using ESP8266 and NodeMCU

A simple wifi network detector using ESP8266 and NodeMCU. It consists of single LED and ESP8266. The device is pre-programmed with network Id of wifi network which needs to be monitored. If the wifi network is in range the LED glows steady , else it starts blinking.

First Arduino Project

Last week I received my Freeduino board from http://www.bhasha.co.cc/ . I took almost a week after placing the order to get my hands on the board.

I am really impressed with the small size of the board . I had also ordered the component kit and I got started within hours. Within a couple of days of work I could create this:

I was able to figure out a good way of making my board my favourite melody. The describes how to compose ,test and fine tune a melody on your PC with a C# program , before uploading it to Arduino/Freeduino.
