ESP32 based DMX recorder for lighting installations
Hi everyone, i'm a newbie maker and i really have nearly inexistent C++ experience.
I needed an inexpensive device to record dmx signal and leave it in fixed lighting installations to avoid leaving expensive DMX consoles around.
So i started figuring out what i needed and ESP32 suited my needs.
For quick concept proof, i started with an M5Stack package (hoping it's not something outrageous from makers' POV lol) to understand if that was what i really needed and then move onto something more custom.
Regarding coding, i'll be honest with you, i just used Antigravity and AI aided me in almost everything (don't hate me guys, i'm aware of the risks).
A few iterations and everything works fine... i just need to improve the loop detection algorithm, but i'm very very satisfied with the overall experience. I hope that this is going to be the first step of a cool adventure!
If anyone ever had similar need, i can upload the repo (or do you always publish the repo by default even if none cares?)
If you have ideas for loop detections in DMX, lmk. or in general feel free to share your thoughts!
