Development of an educational low‐cost and ESP32‐based platform for fundamental physics

Abstract

This paper describes how to implement a new low‐cost modular and open‐source didactic platform using an ESP32 board. The latter is designed to be used in undergraduate fundamental physics in the context of preparatory classes for engineering training. Thus, we intend to create a platform that will serve both teachers and students as a concrete means of carrying out and exploiting certain experimental processes by themselves. In this context, Android devices are used together with electronics development boards to realize this platform with reduced material costs available as open‐source hardware and software licenses. Tests and results are presented and the goal is then attempted. The results of this work will provide a new insight into the work carried out in this theme.
