This project involves controlling a fog machine using an ESP8266 microcontroller via the Art-Net protocol. It includes both the firmware for the ESP8266 and the web interface for configuring and controlling the fog machine.
This project allows you to control a fog machine using an ESP8266 microcontroller via Art-Net, a protocol for sending DMX512 data over an IP network. The system includes a web interface to configure and operate the fog machine.
- Control fog machine via Art-Net protocol
- Web-based configuration and control interface
- OTA (Over-The-Air) updates for firmware
- ESP8266 microcontroller
- Fog machine with a wire to start to power the pump
- Optional: Art-Net compatible lighting controller software or hardware
- Connect the ESP8266 to the fog machine using, for example, a relay.
- Ensure the ESP8266 is powered and connected to your local network.
- Clone or download the repository.
- Open the Arduino IDE and install the required libraries:
- ESP8266 board support
- ArduinoOTA
- ESPAsyncWebServer
- DNSServer
- ArtNet
- Open the
main/main.ino
file in Arduino IDE. - Configure your Wi-Fi settings and other necessary configurations in
main/fog_config.h
. - Upload the code to your ESP8266.
- Once the ESP8266 is powered and connected to the network, access the web interface by entering the IP address assigned to the ESP8266 in your web browser.
- Use the web interface or Art-Net to configure and control the fog machine.
