ESP32 & Joystick Module with Python PyGame Setup | ESP32 Project | Robotics

Описание: Welcome! Hope you're doing well. Recently, I was Python GUI Libraries and developed a simple Snake game using PyGame Library.

Since I have experience in embedded systems and also wanted to post something on my social media profiles, an idea came to mind: why not control the game using a joystick module and an ESP32?

Both devices are on the same local network, and the ESP32 communicates with the Python program running on my laptop over UDP — a lightweight, connectionless communication protocol.

UDP doesn't require handshakes or acknowledgments, which makes it faster and a good fit for this setup, where occasional packet loss isn’t a major concern. Overall, the system works smoothly, and I just wanted to share this quick project with you!
