🚀 Simple VESC Display for ESP32-2432S028R

Credits: Based on the original project by Gh0513d/SVD 🔗

This is a modified version of the VESC display project, optimized for the ESP32-2432S028R display. The goal is to enhance functionality and add new features while keeping it simple and efficient.

🎨 Demo

✨ Features

✅ Real-time speed, RPM, and power display
✅ Optimized data calculations similar to VESC Tool
✅ Trip and total distance tracking
✅ EEPROM storage for trip data
✅ Automatic brightness control using LDR sensor
✅ High-speed UART communication with VESC
✅ Overheating and battery warnings
✅ PNG image support for custom UI background and startup logo

📥 Installation

Follow these steps to set up the project on your ESP32-2432S028:

1️⃣ Install Arduino IDE & ESP32 Board Support

• Download and install the latest Arduino IDE.
• Open Arduino IDE and go to File > Preferences.
• In the "Additional Board Manager URLs" field, add:

  https://raw.githubusercontent.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/gh-pages/package_esp32_index.json
  

• Go to Tools > Board > Boards Manager, search for "ESP32," and install the latest ESP32 board package.

2️⃣ Install Required Libraries

• Extract the libraries.zip file into your Arduino libraries folder (Documents/Arduino/libraries/).
• If you prefer manual installation, ensure you have the following libraries installed:
  • TFT_eSPI (for display control)
  • FlickerFreePrint (for flicker-free text rendering)
  • ComEVesc (for VESC communication)
  • PNGdec (for PNG image decoding)
  • EEPROMAnything (for EEPROM read/write support)

3️⃣ Flash the Code to ESP32

• Open the vesc_display.ino file in Arduino IDE.
• Select the correct board: ESP32 Dev Module.
• Set the correct COM Port.
• Click Upload and wait for the process to complete.

🔧 Configuration

Before compiling, you may need to tweak some settings (if you install tft_espi byself):

• User_Setup.h in the TFT_eSPI library to match your display pinout.
• Adjust motor and wheel parameters in the main.ino file.

🚀 Coming Soon

🔹 More UI customization options (with new library instead as tft_espi :D) 🎨
🔹 BLE and WiFi bridge 🌐
🔹 Improved data logging & visualization 📊
🔹 Add CANBUS support for better and reliable communication
