ESP32 is highly-integrated with in-built antenna switches, RF balun, power amplifier, low-noise receive amplifier, filters, and power management modules. ESP32 adds priceless functionality and versatility to your applications with minimal Printed Circuit Board (PCB) area requirements.
DFRobot FireBeetle esp32 series is the low-power consumption micro-controller intentionally designed for Internet of Things (IoT) projects. FireBeetle Board - ESP32 integrates a Dual-Core ESP-WROOM-32 module , which supports MCU and Wi-Fi & Bluetooth dual-mode communication. The electric current is just 10μA in the deep-sleep mode. The main controller supports two power supply methods: USB and 3.7V external lithium battery. And both USB and external DC can charge the Lipo battery directly.
FireBeetle Board-ESP32 has made a special hardware design for Arduino IDE. You can make a download without switching booth-mode manually. It supports Arduino, IDF (linux), micropython etc. Moreover, FireBeetle made a pin mapping for Arduino IDE. It can be configured with Dx transport, compatible with UNO and reduce the entry barrier.
Now let's see some Firebeetle ESP32 Board Projects.
The small size and high performance makes FireBeetle become idea solution for IOT low power consumption projects.

Firebeetle ESP32 Project 6: Smarten a Plugboard
Yes! What you have seen is a smart plugboard that converted by ESP32 master board and controlled by BLE of ESP32. As a fan of Arduino, I am worried about that ESP32 has been supporting Wi-Fi and Bluetooth but without libraries files for Arduino. However, the smart plugboard can control many slave equipment at the same time. Trust me, I have made two and tested them.
Firebeetle ESP32 Project 7: How to DIY an intelligent robot arm
When I was a college student, I have bought a robot arm that costs about $85, even a small gear is more than $6. I still remember the package emphasize 10 degrees of freedom. Then I have to eat cookies for half a month... That’s too expensive! However, majority robot arm products are about $150 in the market. The price is really too expensive for ordinary people to afford. How about DIY a robot arm? Let’s do it.
