A new project enables users to construct a 3D printer monitor using the ESP32-S3 SuperMini, enhancing the tracking of Bambu prints in real time. This dashboard display features vital information such as print progress, temperature readings, fan speed, layer counts, and estimated time remaining, all accessible at a glance.
The creator, sharing their work on the ESP32 subreddit, provides a detailed overview of the project, including a 1.54-inch TFT SPI ST7789 screen for displaying data. Users can also benefit from functionalities like a customizable web configuration portal, network settings, and an auto-off feature. The project aims to enrich the DIY experience for 3D printing enthusiasts, allowing them to create a personalized monitoring solution.
For those interested in embarking on this project, additional resources including an assembly guide, hardware specifications, and necessary code are available on the project’s GitHub page. With this setup, users can enjoy not only improved print monitoring but also the satisfaction of building their own device.
