ESP32 – Web Server -- Google Gauge – Restaurant Bin Monitoring
This experimentation is about creating an ESP32 (Station Mode), stand-alone HTTP web server and processing / populating decremented counter value at regular interval on HTTP client interface. The web page is developed by using HTML, AJAX and CSS as the subject of “Restaurant Bin Monitoring”. It uses Google Gauge for indicating the status / warning to end user.

ESP32 HTTP Web Server System Overview
A simple counter implementation is deployed on “web-server” as illustrated above
ESP32 act as “web-server” and Google Chrome running on a laptop act as a “web-client”
timer_1 is initiated and toggles the on-board LED at regular interval, via “BlinkLED()” call back function
timer_2 is initiated and updates the meat, egg, fruit, beverage and vegetable variables at a regular interval, via “UpdateCounter()” call back function, validates the counters for lower limit. If counter value exceeds lower limit, then the python program resets the counters to max value.
Whenever the “web-client” requests data via “HTTP Client Page Request” method, then the “web-server”, will construct the complete web page and then sends back to “web-client”.
Whenever the “web-client” requests data via “HTTP Client Data Request” method, then the “web-server”, will construct the data and then sends back to “web-client”.
The “web-client” refreshes the “web page” at 1 second’s interval.
ESP32 HTTP Web Server GUI
A simple counter deployment on a ESP32 “web-server”, with “Restaurant Bin Monitoring” as theme is illustrated above.
The web page is constructed by using “Font Awesome” fonts and material icons. It also uses google charts.
Font Awesome icons are designed to be simple, modern, friendly, and sometimes quirky. Each icon is reduced to its minimal form, expressing essential characteristics.
The style sheet uses “https://use.fontawesome.com/releases/v5.7.2/css/all.css”, for constructing a web page.
Google chart tools are powerful, simple to use, and free. It provides our rich gallery of interactive charts and data tools.
The “web-server” uses “google chart” Java script “https://www.gstatic.com/charts/loader.js”, for creating gauge tool.
The web page is divided into 5 equal vertical columns. Totally 5 boxes.
A box type drawing which uses icon, fonts and Google Gauge for formulating the “Restaurant Bin Monitoring” GUI.
Google Gauge is used for indicating the status / warning of “bin usage”.
Meat / Fish: - Filled in bin 50 kg. Warning indication between 10 kg to 20 kg. Red alert indication for below 10 kg.
Egg: - Filled in bin 800 unit. Warning indication between 100 unit to 250 unit. Red alert indication for below 100 unit.
Fruits: - Filled in bin 180 kg. Warning indication between 30 kg to 75 kg. Red alert indication for below 30 kg.
Beverages: - Filled in bin 150 lit. Warning indication between 30 lit to 60 lit. Red alert indication for below 30 lit.
Vegetable: - Filled in bin 450 kg. Warning indication between 30 kg to 100 kg. Red alert indication for below 30 kg.
ESP32 Web Server MicroPython Program
The timer_one is initialized and callbacks the “BlinkLED” functionality for toggling on board LED at 200mS duration. (frequency = 5)
The timer_two is initialized and callbacks the “UpdateCounter” functionality for updating the system variables at 500mS duration. (frequency = 2)
The MicroPython program, first creates and configures the ESP32 as Station Mode, and then connects to the Wi-Fi router using user provided SSID and Password
§ ssid = 'WiFi Router SSID'
§ password = 'WiFi Router Password'
§ station = network.WLAN(network.STA_IF)
§ station.active(True)
§ station.connect(ssid, password)
§ # Wait until the ESP32 get connected to the router
§ while station.isconnected() == False:
§ pass
The MicroPython program creates a stream TCP web-server socket and then binds it into HTTP port 80. Listens from maximum five web clients
§ s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
§ s.bind(('', 80))
§ s.listen(5)
The system checks the web-client request at endless while loop.
Whenever the web-server receives the “HTTP Client page request”, then it reconstruct the web page and sends the “HTTP Server Page Response” to web-client.
Whenever the web-server receives the “HTTP Client data request”, then it reconstruct the data and sends to web-client.

Conclusion
The project is successfully completed with ESP32 development board, Wi-Fi router and Tablet.
The web-server handles HTML-AJAX request / response at regular interval to web-client running on tablet, android mobile and laptop google chrome, and updates the end user GUI.
