Wireless Temperature/Humidity sensor for ESPHome.
Wemos D1 mini with deep sleep, voltage monitoring using A0 line. BME280 Temperature/Humidity sensor. And a 18650 battery with TP4065 battery manager. Now 3D print a little case.
While working on a client project, I tested multiple displays.
ILI9341
1.3inch SPI TFT LCD Display RGB (ST7789)
Waveshare 4.2 Epaper with ESP32 Controller
I thought it was fun to connect the Epaper to ESPHome.
This probably ends up being a Quote displayer
Universal e-Paper Driver Board with WiFi / Bluetooth SoC ESP32 onboard, supports various Waveshare SPI e-Paper raw panels
It was not without problems. For example, the ESPHome editor gave squiggly lines under type. This has to be changed in the libraries. (Already notified developers)
model: 4.20in-V2 does not work .. use model: 4.20in-v2
While attending Bornhack 2024 in Danmark, I came up with the below fun ideas.
Using Python and OpenCV, I made some funny webcam hacks.
Note: My laptop webcam is very bad, a better webcam should give you a more stable result.
First, a virtual workspace flipper. Just using my head movement to flip through my virtual desktops. (Turning left and right)
Next, an image viewer. Using your head movement up, down, left and right to control the image. Note : this is not the same movement as above. This won’t use rotation of your head!
Testing the first keyboard. It is the 8085-SDK hex matrix keyboard.
It is running on a Raspberry Pi Zero 2, without X server. So the images are displayed using the framebuffer. Also the touch data is read using evdev and the raw devices.
Todo:
HID part
Add a rotary button for the selection of the different Keyboard Layouts
Improvement keyboard matrix calculation to find out which key is being pressed.
Code to control AT/PS2 computers directly using GPIO pins
Add a controller to use Raw controlling of matrix pins ( 6502 C64 hardware for example )

for path in evdev.list_devices():
device = evdev.InputDevice(path)
if evdev.ecodes.EV_ABS in device.capabilities():
break
else:
sys.stderr.write('Failed to find the touchscreen.\n')
sys.exit(1)
while True:
r, w, x = select.select([device.fd], [], [])
id_ = -1
x = y = 0
for event in device.read():
if event.code == event.value == 0:
if id_ != -1:
yy = floor(( x - 600 ) / 700)
xx = floor(( y - 1377 ) / 226)
if yy < 4 and yy >=0 and xx < 6 and xx >= 00:
if slot == 1:
print(keysnames[yy][xx])
else:
print(keysname[yy][xx])
elif event.code == ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID:
id_ = event.value
elif event.code == ABS_MT_SLOT:
slot = event.value
elif event.code == ABS_MT_POSITION_X:
x = event.value
elif event.code == ABS_MT_POSITION_Y:
y = event.value
I came up with a simple matrix calculation
Pressing the 4 corner keys gave me x and y. I took averages for min and max reading. I don’t need pixel-perfect reading, and I noticed values between 960 and 3080 vertically. We want 960 – 3080 into 4 blocks, but the middle should start @ 960.
So 3080/3 = about 700 700 / 2 = 350 block 1 starts 350 sooner than 960 is ~ 600 Upper key y coords = 600-> + 700 Next is 1300 -> + 700 converting to whole numbers using floor gives me: floor(( y – 600 ) / 700) NOTE: My x and y are rotated
Example using coordinates 1600, 1600 floor(( 1600 – 600 ) / 700) = floor(1,4…) = 1st row (from row 0,1,2,3)
Made a clock circuit and busy designing a power-on-reset schematic. I’ve made one before, but this circuit needs RESET and HALT being pulled low.
8mhz 5V
The 68000 being 24 bit address and 16 bit data needs 2x 8-bit roms and 2x 8 bit ram, but i didn’t have the components yet in this picture.
Address decoder using ATF22V10C is also halfway. Schematics online soon.

Investigating syncing effect to Sid music.
I got a great tip from Youth who made the Freakandel demo presented at X2024.
> Setup the loop to play the music
> Copy part of the memory to the screen ($0400) in the same loop to look for memory locations that are used as variables for the music. > Looking at
> Memory where the music is stored
> Zeropage ($00-$ff)
> See if there's some useful changes that coincide with for example drums
> For my own tunes, I use a music routine where I can put event markers in the music itself and react to those from the code. That's >how I synced https://www.micheldebree.nl/posts/big_angry_sprite/
> You could also try reading the SID registers for voice 3 (waveform and ADSR), those are the only ones that are not write-only. > Obviously you can then only react to those changes in voice 3.
I used retrodebugger to see which bytes are changing. Then I wrote a program which changes the background colour to this value. I also made a program to use a joystick to see which address have the most interesting effect. (use up)
