4. Experience

Thanks to the good design of Seeed Studio XIAO ESP32C3 development board, expansion board, sensor, and the convenience of micropython, all the required and optional tasks are completed, as summarized below.

Although ESP32C3 is not the most powerful nor has the most abundant resources in the ESP32 family, it can accomplish a lot of things if its capabilities are fully utilized.

In the process of completing this task, I became familiar with the hardware of ESP32C3 again and became more proficient in using the various functions of MicroPython.

Thanks to Digi-Key and EEWORLD for providing this sprint opportunity. I hope everyone can complete the task successfully.
