From dashsbuttons to the final ESP32-C3 based Picoclick-C3. A long road of designing, testing and optimizing this device has reached an end.
The Picoclicks are WiFi connected buttons for the internet of things. They can send messages which perform different actions in your smart home or the world wide web. But the Picoclick-C3 has become more than just an IOT-button. Due to its extension port it can be used as a tiny development board. It can communicate with other I2C devices like shown in the video, but the external GPIOs can be used in several different ways. More over this Picoclick can be activate by an external source (and not the button itself) which implies tons of new possibilities.
The extension boards for the Picoclick can be very useful. I've only showed one of them in this video, but two others are already in the lab and five more are already designed and ready for production. What extension board do you think of? Which useful application can be added to this tiny device? Write your suggestions in the comments below! :)
The Picoclick-C3 and few extension boards are now available in my shop:

So much power in a tiny package hardly larger than a pushbutton! That transparent case is amazing too! Very impressive!
Thanks man! It was a hard way to put it all in such a tiny package 😀
@@makermoekoe I wonder just how much smaller it could get with one of those thin tactile membrane buttons and a thinner PCB or flexible PCB
hey hari, caught you here 🤪
@@makermoekoe love the engineering…. My eyes and hands are to old to make this… are you open to selling them?
@@makermoekoe😊
You do never fail to amaze us! What a pleasure to be one part of ur masterpiece!🤟🥳
Thank you!!!
He's incredible ehh
@@jstro-hobbytech no ... he's just German ✌🏼😂✌🏼
@@d0eNer I don't know a single German who isn't an engineer haha
@@makermoekoe You are INSAME! 👍
Impressed on how well executed this project was!!!
Thank you ☺️
This seems like something that could easily be commercialized, great job
Already is, there's fall detection/call buttons for patients and staff pendants and the like. They even add in ultrasonic detection for making zone detection/triggers for beaconing, for area control of patients that like to wander (mental conditions). Goes even further with integration into building security controls like door releases/maglocks/etc.
@@rangerman375 I think @ivolol is talking about a programmable microcontroller for development. Not a consumer product with a specific function.
Would definitely love to see this running on Home Assistant
This is so cool! I love how small the ESP32 can get and still have full wifi capabilities
Absolutely awesome design and engineering, also the documentation and READMEs are outstanding - thank you for sharing this and making it open source as well!
Glad to hear something about all the work apart from TH-cam! Thanks!
I just started with a similar project for window open/close reed switches with the esp-01s also using espnow. I think I might now have to rethink a lot. You created something truly amazing here imo.
I first came across your videos on social media and was instantly amazed at your iron reflow station. Till this day you still amaze me with the stuff you build. Super super impressive....
Keep up the great work
Thanks man!
This is awesome!
I've been wanting a smart button to help a loved one keeping track of insulin usage and I feel like those would be great for that. Looking forward for when they're available at your store again
Wow this project is amazing! keep up the amazing work with these IOT devices (and pushbuttons)!
Watching you build this is/was amazing, never have seen something built in this manner.
12:49 coolest thing I have ever seen in maker community.. kudos
All of your projects fill me simultaneously with great motivation and shame. Great video :)
WOW what a great work. I've just started working on IOT and I got inspired to continue by your work
Not gonna lie, I like how you say "sensors". Thanks for the great content. Keep up the great work!
Amazing content and result as always, inspiring stuff! Thank you!
Holy cow, it is amazing. I can think of so many useful applications for this.
Man, you have great potential in making thinks smaller. Keep up the work. And really liked this narrative type video, it added charm to your already better content.
Great to hear! Thanks!
That motion display is nuts!!
It‘s my favorite as well 😀
@@makermoekoe how did you make it?
Great idea expanding on functionality and making an existing device even better.
Thank you Mike!
Absolutely amazing work! Hats off!
That is so elegant and compact, the PCB so small that I wondered for a second, "where did he get that giant SMD push-button?"
I'm so envious of all your tools
Genius maker just lv999 unreachable, played trough his hobby, profession ^^
I love to see the process! I can find a lot of articles describing how amazing the Picoclicks are, but nowhere which say what can I do with them exactly.
That's why I'm doing the most normal question: "What can I do with this and how can benefit my everyday life?"
the jigs to build and test are as impressive as the design good show
Great work!
That’s a sweet build! You asked whether we’d be interested in a video about home setup and use. I would!
The journey to the pico click has been fun to watch! Keep going, can't wait to see where you go next! 👍🏻
Great to hear! Thank you 🙂
Definitely interested in connecting it to MQTT. Keep up the good work!
i love the engineers who innovate circuits to solve interesting challenges..
This is exactly what I wanted to build... Thank you
Wow, it's so cute and the possibilities are so cool!
Outstanding work! Thanks for sharing your project.
Great work as always!
oh my gosh. I need a dozen of these!
Dude I joined your channel because everything you do is so pro. Love your work.
Thank you so much!
Very impressive. Well done!
Wow! Incredible work
Wow this is quite the impressive little board! It came together very well!
Thank you!
Amazing work! Love it
This looks so great, would love to learn more about this board
Nice! Very interested in the HA integration
What a great project. Thank you for making it open source :)
neat. I'm gonna build some picoclick into weird iot business cards. I really enjoy your projects!
Always like that you use top of the edge technology and electronics for your projects! you are a great engineer bro!
Glad to hear - thank you!
Wow! This is awesome!
Mind blowing work and such professional project execution!
Thank you!
Beautiful PCB's my friend. I'm Jelly !
Makes me want to design more PCB's! (from PCBWAY) I have used them in the past and was very pleased!
Thanks for this video!
This is really impressive, I really enjoyed this video, keep up the good work!
This is so cool, and yes it would be great for home assistant!!
This is freaking incredible I cannot believe I haven't stumbled across your channel before.
Thanks! Great you did now 😃
Home Assistent setup guide would be amazing ❤
Everything you make is Aesthetically pleasing
😍 These words! Thank you!
this is awesome. great work
You did amazing job!!
Great job! a lot of patience and knowledge. 👍
I need these for my HA setup, I hope to see your tindie in stock soon! Awesome work man!
Thanks! Just a little spoiler: Yes, you will see them there soon 😄
This is awesome. I've been following since the original Picoclick. Great idea and execution.
Thank you! Glad to hear that you're still interested in the Picoclick project 🤩
I will be waiting for a restock. Amazing device
As a fellow creator/maker and youtuber i can really appreciate how much work you've put into your videos and the devices you've built over the years.
Great job bro.
by the way, please what's the part number of the voltage regulator you used for the motion sensor?
So impressed by your skills! Good luck with your work, keep making💪🏻
Thank you!
Oh Boi, this gonne be a completely new and probably verry deep rabbit hole youtube just threw me into.... Great Video, gets me dreaming
Haha thank you 😍
That is some satisfying pick and placement....
Thank you!
Amazing project - amazing channel - amazing video once more!
That thing is so cute. What a fantastic design!
Thanks 😍
Very impressive!
Informational and inspiring, keep on making
It’s awesome to se the whole process! From V1 to this final (for now 😬) version 😊!
What do you think - will it be the final one? 😀 Thanks!
@@makermoekoe I’m a small PCB builder as well, and based on my experience I would say NO. There’s no such thing as “perfect PCB”, there’s always room for small tweaks and improvements. 😬
Klasse arbeit!!!
As always bringing us a top tier project :)
Thank you! 🙂
Excellent result, my compliments! this is a truly professional grade device
Thank you!!
Amazing, I've always dreamed of devices like this. Congratulations !
Thank you!
Perfect use of technology. This amazing that how you fit all in this smal form factor. 👌👌
Wow Excellent project! And yes i am interested in your Home Assistant solution
Lovely project. 👍😀
awesome work! These are the kind of projects I want to buy for Home Assistant!!
Thanks! In the next video I will show the Homeassistant integration!
This is very impressive
These boards are insane 💯
Thank you! 😍
@@makermoekoe so much potential with these small things, keep up the great work 🔥
yes, HA is Interesting theme for this project!
Yes very interested in functionality with Homeassistant, also would be great to have a magnet mounted no drill mounting plate for walls and whatever! That would probably make a lot of people happy
That motion sensor bit at the end makes me think that this could be an amazing tool to rapidly tune input shaping across different 3D printers.
Nice video and nice build overview!
Thank you!
I am always amazed when I see your projects ... it's about time that you team up with Opulo
Nice work
Awesome! You are really inspiring me with every project. Thx, a lot :)
Great job!
Really cool!!
Do you mind posting your solder oven, solder hot plate, and spring circuit board clamps you’re using?
This is so inspiring
This is so cool. I used a bunch of these techniques to build my custom made ringbell that sits outside without any wires, just ESPNOW, deep sleep mode, a 1000mah lipo and a touch pad that lights up for a second to wake up the ESP32, do its thing and go back to sleep. it will survive 6 months on a single charge. but of course it's a bit builkier and built on a protoboard (I'm ages away from being able to build my own pcbs).
Love it. Starred the Github repo it could become very useful for me in the future while I build up my smart home.
Setup for Home Assistant is definitely interesting!
Total geil!
This is very cool, I love it
Oh shit i love your tools for soldering little components :3
Amazing Thanks for sharing
having done microsoldering, I'm really impressed with how professionally put together this unit is, and I'm loving seeing how fast it can communicate data between the two units, but damn, maybe I'm not creative enough, but I'm struggling to find a good use for such a device in my own life at least. I still want to build one
I might for example want to add one to the mailbox with a motion sensor.
@@walletjew That's a good use, combine it with a Lora unit on a property would be spot on
I would love to see a big production run of these. In combination with ESPhome it would be amazing!
Very keen to see how this can work with Home Assistant
