I watched your YouTube video on this. Looks like wires are just connecting from the esp32. Is that correct? Have you tried it on thicker plastic? Say like a 55 gallon drum? Have you tried using the aluminum/metal duct tape? I am very curious.
Yes, wires straight to ESP32. I tried it on a Home Depot bucket with the copper tape and it worked as well.
how did you guys get the range up to 700 on arduino ide??
Hello,
Thank you for your post. I am trying to run this code directly from my pc and not through a wireless adapter. Will it work? Also, I cant find the ESPmDNS on the library manager. Any suggestions? I however found MDNS_Generic. Is that the same by any chance?
Thank you for your time.
Edit: So I solved this problem by manually adding the ESPmDNS library from https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/tree/master/libraries/ESPmDNS
Now I have this error
Arduino: 1.8.19 (Windows 7), Board: "Arduino Uno"
In file included from C:\Users*********\Desktop\sketch_dec27a\sketch_dec27a.ino:2:0:

This report would have more information with

option enabled in File -> Preferences.Any help is appreciated.
Thank you
This might be too late for you, but I'll chime in, in case anyone else is curious: I assume you're getting the error because an arduino Uno doesn't have a wifi module onboard, whereas an esp32 does.
