How to Start with ESP32 Arduino: A Tutorial on getting the DHT11 Temperature and Humidity Sensor data to to https://thingsio.ai IoT Platform
In things ESP32 Arduino tutorial we will introduce ESP32, the newest line of ESP modules from expressif systems. I had some time over the weekend to play with ESP32 and it is fantastic much more powerful than ESP8266 chipset.
ESP32 Primer: ESP32 is what I would call as a Hybrid IoT Chip, it has WiFi and Bluetooth build in with a powerful processor with upto240 Mhz Clocking, which is more than enough for any IoT applications
We will use Arduino IDE with ESP32 and add in DTH11 Temperature and Humidity Senor and connect to thingsio.ai, which is I call marriage made is heaven because it covers sensors, programming and cloud part. Pre-requisites
-
ESP32 Board : Mostly you would have brought ESP32-dev module
-
DHT11 Temperature and Humidity Sensor
-
Active account on https://thingsio.ai
Also ensure that you have good WiFi connection. Tutorial
I have made a video tutorial of around 10 minutes, if you have all the above pre-requisitics covered, is should be fairly easy to do this.

Conclusion
If the ESP32 tutorial goes well, then you should have the screen like below
