Step 3: Firmware development Before the application development, you need to port the MCU SDK to your project. Then, flash the general firmware and Tuya’s license to the network module. This way, the mower can communicate with the cloud. The demo routine also includes FreeRTOS to facilitate your development. After the above preparation is completed, you can proceed with the application development. Download the sample code: tuya-iotos-embeded-mcu-demo-wifi-ble-samrt-lawn-mower Drivers for motor, servo, and ESC Have four motors connected to each wheel for movement. Two servos are used to control the ESC as well as the position of the blade connected to the ESC. The ESC controls and regulates the speed of the blade rotation. Write the initialization procedure for the above components, which are implemented in servo_motor.c .

All of my office devices are connected to Sonoff S31 smart plugs, flashed with Tasmota on their own locked-down VLAN, and can be controlled via voice, Alexa, Tasker automation on my Android, NFC tags at my office door and various scripts triggered via my StreamDeck (on Linux). This all works fantastic, and I can turn on or off my devices, including my printer, when I start or end my day at work.

The best alternative firmware example for true IOT devices is Tasmota [1]. Erase manufacturer firmware for every ESP devices the day after purchase to avoid those careless manufacturer firmwares.

The ESP8266 based Sonoff S31 and ESP32 based Switchbot plugs, both flashed with either Tasmota or ESPHome, are my go-to options for US WiFi smart plugs with power monitoring.

And if you want to turn your ESP8266 into a standalone appliance, with a web interface and directly editable config that doesn't need a build step, Tasmota is another great option.
