Overview of this book

ESP32, a low-cost and energy-efficient system-on-a-chip microcontroller, has become the backbone of numerous WiFi devices, fueling IoT innovation. This book offers a holistic approach to building an IoT system from the ground up, ensuring secure data communication from sensors to cloud platforms, empowering you to create production-grade IoT solutions using the ESP32 SoC. Starting with IoT essentials supported by real-world use cases, this book takes you through the entire process of constructing an IoT device using ESP32. Each chapter introduces new dimensions to your IoT applications, covering sensor communication, the integration of prominent IoT libraries like LittleFS and LVGL, connectivity options via WiFi, security measures, cloud integration, and the visualization of real-time data using Grafana. Furthermore, a dedicated section explores AI/ML for embedded systems, guiding you through building and running ML applications with tinyML and ESP32-S3 to create state-of-the-art embedded products. This book adopts a hands-on approach, ensuring you can start building IoT solutions right from the beginning. Towards the end of the book, you'll tackle a full-scale Smart Home project, applying all the techniques you've learned in real-time. Embark on your journey to build secure, production-grade IoT systems with ESP32 today!

Next steps for TinyML development

In the scope of this book, we only discussed how to run inference on ESP32 by using different TinyML frameworks. However, in real-world scenarios, we need to do more. Let’s review the ML development stages once more and have a short discussion of them in terms of the engineering work needed:

  • Project requirements: A project starts with a need and requirements that list what to do in response to that need. A machine learning project is no exception for that. The requirements of an ML project usually reveal a lot about the nature of data in the project. With a requirement analysis, we can understand what data we need to collect, the sources of data, how we can collect it, any option to import external data, data versioning requirements, etc. In addition, a requirements document can have information about the performance of the output model, such as the accuracy, response time, and memory limitations. Project requirements have a direct...
