Choice of selection
For the webserver we chose the libesphttpd project, originally created by Spritetm, originally for the ESP-8266 but modified for the ESP32 by Chris Morgan.
Purpose
The purpose of the webserver is to stream data to a mobile handset or computer using the onboard Wifi ability of the ESP32. The use of the webserver was designed to be primarily used to set up the system and ensure the system is okay prior to leaving it in the field over a 24-72 hour period.
The data within the web server includes:
- Real time sensor information
- System status such as current time
- Status of storage media such as SD card.
- Real time visualisation of the thermal array sensor data. This is to ensure that the camera is facing the source of heat.
- Bluetooth tag information including RSSI - This is used to test the limits of the hand worn bluetooth tag with regard to distance,
Information is listed in project video.
