ESP32 4-Floor Elevator Simulator

Architected a deterministic, interrupt-driven elevator control system on ESP32 implementing a SCAN scheduling algorithm within an explicit finite state machine framework. Designed non-blocking, event-driven timing using hardware interrupts to ensure predictable state transitions under real-time constraints. Abstracted hardware inputs and LED status outputs from control logic to maintain modularity and scalability while modeling realistic multi-floor servicing behavior.

ESP32 Alarm Clock System

Engineered a WiFi-enabled alarm clock on the ESP32 featuring NTP time synchronization, I2S audio output, and OLED display rendering. Designed a deterministic finite state machine (OFF, ARMED, RINGING, SNOOZED, SILENCED) to manage alarm behavior with non-blocking button handling and coordinated peripheral control (I2C, I2S, GPIO).
