Project overview

The ESP32 seismic gyro system is an embedded system study focused on sensing motion or vibration data, filtering it and turning it into meaningful event information. Noisy sensor outputs such as IMU or gyro data must be evaluated with thresholds, time windows and event logic rather than simply being read. The project focuses on building a measurement, interpretation and reporting chain on a low cost embedded platform.

System perspective: The project was considered not as a single technical output, but together with requirements, data flow, user interaction, failure scenarios, maintainability and future extensibility. This makes both the engineering decisions and software architecture choices easier to understand.

Implementation detail: The content was expanded to explain not only the technologies used, but also how the problem was approached, which layers were separated, how data and control flow were considered, and which competency the project represents inside the CV.

Portfolio depth: This record highlights not only the technologies used, but also how the requirement was decomposed, how data or control flow was considered, what output is presented to the user and how the project can be extended later. This turns the project card from a short showcase into a readable case study that explains engineering decisions.

Case Study

The technical story from problem to outcome

Problem

In vibration or sudden motion detection systems, raw IMU data can be noisy and may not create meaningful event information by itself. The system should read data consistently and make it interpretable through thresholds, filtering and timestamps.

Solution

Sensor reading, threshold control, time windows and event recording were designed together.

Technical architecture

ESP32 collects sensor data, the software layer filters and classifies events, and the reporting layer makes results understandable.

Outcome

The project became a strong example that raw sensor data is not information until software gives it context.
