• Description:
A fantastic feature of working with WiFi-capable microcontrollers is the ability to update the firmware wirelessly. This is known as Over The Air (OTA) programming, and we saw in another video how to do it for the ESP8266 ( • ESP8266 Web Server and Websockets Usi... ).
One of the limitations of OTA is that the code needs to run a specific line of code, but doing so might interfere with other things that the code needs to do. Our previous sketch waited 15 seconds after booting for an update and then blinked an LED. However, each time we needed to run OTA we needed to turn power on and off the board.
In this video, I show you the steps for updating code wirelessly any time we want!
Note:
On Windows, please make sure you install either iTunes or Bonjour so that your computer can see the ESP8266 over the Wi-Fi network (it uses mDNS):
