Elecrow ESP32-Terminal

The Elecrow ESP Terminal, centered around the ESP32-S3 microcontroller, is equipped with 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5, 16MB Flash, and 8MB PSRAM, highlighting its potential as a powerful control unit for various applications. We delve into its features, including the 3.5-inch TFT touchscreen display with a resolution of 480*320, capacitive touch interface, and expansion options through HY2.0 connectors specifically designed for Elecrow sensors. Despite its audio limitations, having only a buzzer, and the design considerations regarding the battery port placement, the video emphasizes the device's utility and customization potential for tech enthusiasts. Additionally, we explore the comprehensive documentation provided by Elecrow, emphasizing its value in facilitating a deeper understanding and application of the device in DIY electronics projects. The objective is to equip viewers with a thorough understanding of the ESP Terminal's technical specifications and practical applications, rather than focusing on selling the product.

This is great. I've been looking for a dodongle with enough ports to plug in all my flibberjibbets. Very useful.

I have no idea what this is but looks interesting

A few things since I'm stoned and have let this repeat a dozen times trying to reply lol.

I'd love to get one of those to mess with, but being based off a Wroom instead of a Wrover is disappointing not having PSRAM. It may not always be needed, but it's nice to have for expanded options with designs.

Also, those connectors don't seem that uncommon, at least with microcontrollers. I'm even incorporating them into my newest handheld game console design using an ESP32-Wroom-32D SoC and an ILI9341 tft. They're also standard in the M5Stack line of products and others like it. With those, they make connecting things via UART super easy compared to having to wire multiple data and power connections separately.

Anyway, nice video. Great description of the device and I loved the closeups. Other channels don't do it as much or as cinematically.

I absolutely love basic tech in a tiny form and I don't don't know why.

The ESP32 is my go-to microcontroller, alongside the ESP-8266. Dirt cheap, decently powerful, easy to program PLUS they have wifi.

It is important to note that this supports BLE not (classic) Bluetooth. Important if you wanna stream BT music. This is true ay least for the framework the ESP guys provide

[IneaCylean]

Oh hey I have one of these, it just didnt come with a nice shell, its just a yellow board they put in like an altoids tin, but its the same, same demo and all.

Theyre neato, I think I wanna make it into some kinda remote control/terminal thing for all my projects.

How do you build such UI? Is it a library or is it self made? Its running directly on the esp right?

[ZaidImrozYT]

The terminal is running lvgl graphics library demos.

I have more than half a decade of experience with automotive and embedded systems but I can'thelp but drool on this one.😅.

"plenty of ram" That's the smallest amount of ram I've seen since the early 2000's

[gearsgamer]

Might want to find something like a pro variant of this with a actual quad core arm soc chip. I think that would make it really good

[recoblade]

Just an FYI I imagine you get a kick back if we use your link but we can't use your link on a short can't even copy it if you're on a phone

[BetterThenIncredible]

What is this used for? Asking for a friend mostly

[vacationlos]

Hi I have a question what are Bluetooth speakers made out of is it the esp32 ? I would love to learn how it’s used can you point me in the right direction please thank you brother 🙏🏽

[CustomMusicDesign]

I'd rather have raw header pins than hard-to-find connectors for sensors.

[flaone]

I wonder if I can hook it up in my car to Holley terminator x ?

[golanoski]

But, why?? What do yall use theese for???

[Likeiverson]

I wish I knew what the heck you were talking about or what these items do

[LeslieWorks]

What can I use something like this for ? Also i need to get with you about a simple small tech solution that may be up your alley. Don't have the time to mess with it myself atm

[DaSlotho]

How far r we from turnimg one of them into a cellphone
