Claude Code identifies three unlabeled ESP32 boards and writes firmware for each

Creator Magic plugged three unlabeled ESP32 boards into a Mac one at a time and had Claude Code identify each over USB. Claude then wrote different firmware for each: a sea-conditions display, a Bluetooth audio spectrum analyzer and an e-paper sound picture. The 23-minute video shows all three running and a display offset Claude diagnosed from a photo.

Briefing

The boards were a Waveshare ESP32-C6-LCD-1.47 ($19.99), an ESP32-2432S028R "Cheap Yellow Display" ($17.98) and a Waveshare ESP32-S3-ePaper-1.54 ($25.99). Claude Code's identification went as far as the Windows username left in the factory firmware's build.

The sea-conditions display shows water temperature and wave height off Paphos, fed over USB; its firmware is 376 KB against the 1.87 MB factory image. The description says Claude noticed the C6 cannot carry Bluetooth audio. The e-paper board listens for five seconds before drawing, and the offset diagnosed from the photo was 34 pixels.

The creator says he bought the boards himself. Some links in the description are affiliate links.
