Overview of this book

ESP32 is a versatile microcontroller and a great starting point for anyone venturing into the IoT realm, but its configuration and interfacing of sensors can be challenging for new users. Arduino Integrated Development Environment (IDE) simplifies programming, uploading code, and utilization of ESP32 capabilities, enabling users to incorporate it into their IoT projects with ease. This book will help you learn the essentials of sensing, networking, data processing, and applications with ESP32, laying a strong foundation for further IoT development. Starting with ESP32 and Arduino Ide 2.0 basics, you'll first explore practical implementation examples of interfacing sensors with ESP32. These examples will also teach you how to interface the ESP32 camera and display modules with ESP32. As you progress, you’ll get to grips with IoT network and data protocols, as well as the many options they unlock within IoT applications. The book will also help you leverage your newly acquired knowledge with exciting projects ranging from smart connected devices to data loggers and automation. By the end of this book, you'll confidently navigate ESP32 projects with newfound knowledge and skills, know what IoT protocol to select for your applications, and successfully build and deploy your own IoT projects.

Creating a user-friendly experience for potential renters

By now, you will have noticed that the code contained in each of the preceding sections was just a small part of this project. In this section, we will combine everything to create a user-friendly experience for potential renters. The following is the flow chart for this project:

Figure 7.9 – The project flow chart

Figure 7.9 – The project flow chart

The preceding flow chart shows the flow of the commands and instructions for various scenarios – that is, when the payment has not been made and the car is not parked or parked, and when the payment has been made and the car is parked or not. The flow chart will help us understand and create a logic to write the final code of the project. The final code has all the functionalities that we have previously discussed in this chapter. It will wait for the button press, read the sensor data, wait for the payment, and show the parking status on the OLED. The code is available...
