thingSoC is an Open Source socket system for IoT development and has just launched a new Crowdy Supply campaign:
Build any IoT or Networked device you can imagine!
The thingSoC Grovey! platform gives you the freedom to choose from hundreds of existing sensors, actuators, and radios to quickly create new electronic systems, in plug together configurations that were not possible before. Easily mix together different CPUs, Radios, and Peripherals, like Servos, Motors, Relays, Sound and Lights, and then program them in your choice of Integrated Development Environments (IDE).
The thingSoC Grovey! series combines access to the Seeedstudio Grove system, and the Mikrobus “Click” system, to give you the widest selection of radios, sensors, and actuators available today.
The thingSoC Grovey Series files are available on GitHub:
A very fun Internet of things project to control the custom RGB led over the internet from a web-browser or enjoy a nice sound reactive experience. Perfect for a smart home setup as you can easily connect this to any IoT platform or smart home software
Shortcuts:
Daniel Grießhaber created this convenient tool to test your WiFi Security against attackers:
Demonstrate how easy it is to crack a WiFi Password or jam your WiFi so you can’t access the internet. Designed for education and self-tests.
ESPTool has the following hardware:
The design files and source code are available on GitHub:
Mike Rankin created this adorably small WiFi-connected color OLED board:
I’ve been keeping an eye on the SSD1331 library to see if it would eventually work with the ESP8266 wifi modules. I noticed the support for it appeared one day with the Adafruit library so I tried it out on my Adafruit Hazzah and success!

Switcher – A WiFi Open Source Power Switch and Socket Based on ESP8266
The switch uses the prominent ESP8266-01 module, an Arduino program, a 3D printed box and modules. It is free and open source, so you can build and modify it on your own!

MobileWill revamped his living room monitor with a new board design:
For over a year now the living room node and La Crosse Gateway has been sitting atop a plastic bin next to my patio slider in a mess of wires. This is when you know you have too many projects lying around the house. So this summer I decided to design a PCB with a nodeMCU that will replace both projects and mount atop of a power brick. I went with the nodeMCU since there is power nearby, ease of connecting directly to the MQTT broker, and I can broadcast more often without the power limitations of a battery. This project frees up two RFM12B boards so that they can be used for the other window and the front door.
The new board features:
Teensy-based weather badge that logs humidity and temperature to Adafruit.io via WiFi:
The Kicad design files and Arduino source code are hosted on GitHub:
The sensor data is logged to Adafruit.io via ESP8266’s WiFi connection:

Pierre Muth has created a battery powered remote display for logging station:
This tests using the famous ESP8266 and low consumption Sharp Memory LCD. Is it possible to have a compact remote display battery powered?

Kris Winer of Pesky Products designed a brushed motor UAV flight controller using the ESP8266:
UAV flight controller [..] using the ESP8266EX Tensilica Xtensa system-on-chip, the EM7180+MPU9250+MS5637 (Ultimate Sensor Fusion Solution) for motion sensing and low on-resistance (20 mOhm) n-type DMN2041L MOSFets to drive up to four brushed motors using PWM signals
