Most IoT (if not all of them) require your device to communicate via a network. Here we connect to the existing WiFi network, 2.4GHz. All laboratory nodes can access common access point and require credentials to connect to it (see laboratory description section for the credentials and latest updates). ESP 8266 has a built-in WiFi interface so you're using it to connect to the network. Every ESP has an individual MAC address. An IP address is assigned to the ESP via DHCP server, automatically, so you will present it on the LCD screen
Undergraduate / Bachelor / Engineering Students
You will need to know the credentials of the network - see node description for details. Mind, those may be different than in the code chunks presented below.
Describe scenario to let the user understand its idea and process. Write information about the approach, algorithm, etc. (depends on the lab). Provide useful information about protocols, assumptions, addresses (i.e. communication servers), credentials, etc.
Describe expected result when scenario is finished.
Write starting conditions, i.e. what to do at the beginning, what to pay attention before beginning, how the mechanical part should look like, etc.
Write some extra information if i.e. some steps are optional otherwise cancel this paragraph (but do not remove header).
Describe activities done in Step 1.

Describe activities done in Step n.
Provide some result validation methods, for self assesment.
