Data exchange between microcontroller and PC server via Internet?

Question

Microcontrollers

Hello!
Interested in the issue of data exchange between the microcontroller and the PC via the wireless Internet module. Interested in both software and hardware.
How it is better to implement it? Any examples?
Thanks in advance, any information on the subject would be helpful.

Answer 1

esp8266.ru - the site is dedicated to the wi-fi controller of the same name. The easiest way to organize an exchange over a TCP connection is in the form of a web page (with web sockets). But the specific implementation depends on the task - if dynamics is needed, then the implementation will be different. If you need a very large bandwidth - real-time monitoring of 100 sensors - then esp8266 is not enough.

Answer 2

Let's start with what MK. If this is an Arduino board, then there are no problems, we buy any WiFi module, attach it and rejoice. If it's just pure Atmel, then it's difficult, but possible . I don't know how to connect Wifi to a PIC or something exotic, but Google should know.
As follows from the description, the ESP8266 has its own programmable controller, incl. in the Arduino IDE, i.e. if the task is not difficult, then a separate MC is not required

Answer 3

Here is an example of my article - Wi-Fi in an amateur project? There is nothing easier!

Answer 4

Wifi is not always stable, I recommend cable. By the state of the link, you can understand what happened to the controller.
I used equipment from here in my projects: kernelchip.ru
