This project is an ESP-IDF firmware for the Seeed Studio XIAO ESP32-C6 that turns the board into a self-hosted, secure Wi-Fi scanning logger. It creates its own access point, serves a responsive HTTPS web UI, logs nearby Wi-Fi access points, optionally tags rows with GPS coordinates (provided by the client browser), and exposes battery status from the on-board LiPo input. The end result is a pocket Wi-Fi “survey” tool: scan, track, export logs as CSV, and generate a heat map view to visualize RSSI vs location. Project overview and feature set: :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1} What it does AP + Station mode so the device can serve the dashboard while scanning nearby Wi-Fi networks. HTTPS web interface using a bundled certificate/key for local secure access. Single scan and continuous tracking modes. CSV export for analysis and archiving. Persistent logging to SPIFFS at /spiffs/logs.csv . Battery monitoring via ADC with voltage/percentage/status sh...

I built a small firmware project for the M5Stick-C that continuously scans the 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi band , visualizes channel congestion as a histogram, and lets you drill into the strongest nearby networks (SSID, RSSI, channel). There’s also a lightweight tracking mode that estimates distance to a selected SSID using RSSI. Pocket-sized Wi-Fi visibility: quick scans and a clear spectrum view on the M5Stick-C. What it does Periodic active scans of nearby Wi-Fi networks across channels 1–13 . Histogram “spectrum” view showing how congested each channel is. Detail view listing the strongest networks with RSSI (dBm) and channel. Manual rescan on demand. Battery indicator with live percentage on screen. Tracking mode : lock onto an SSID and display RSSI + estimated distance. Spectrum view (channel congestion) The default screen is a simple histogram across channels 1–13. It gives an at-a-glance picture of where the band is crowded, so you can quickly s...
