With the built in WiFi capability of ESP8266, the PC stat can also be broadcasted over WiFi to a remote cloud server. The firmware is developed using Arduino IDE, so the standalone LCD version of this project would still be compatible with Arduino boards.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_13173\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/embedded-lab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/esp8266_lcd.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13173\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13173\" src=\"http:\/\/embedded-lab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/esp8266_lcd.jpg\" alt=\"ESP8266 PC stat monitor\" width=\"800\" height=\"526\" srcset=\"https:\/\/embedded-lab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/esp8266_lcd.jpg 800w, https:\/\/embedded-lab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/esp8266_lcd-580x381.jpg 580w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-13173\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">ESP8266 PC stat monitor<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are tons of PC applications you can install on your PC for monitoring essential stats for CPU, disk, memory, system temperature, etc. Here is a standalone hardware project that would receive the PC stat via USB port and display it on a dedicated 2.8&#8243; TFT display.
