Tholus Flow
ESP32 + VL53L8CH sensor for people counting and proximity detection, designed to be replicable, easy to assemble and field-updatable.
- Firmware `.ino`
- BOM and sourcing
- Wiring and commissioning
the usual neXt Lab
Hardware, firmware and applied research published clearly.
The Lab brings together the open-source projects and technical platforms we are building: sensors, components, downloadable firmware, assembly notes, commissioning flows and references for anyone who wants to understand, replicate or integrate our work.
- Open-source hardware
- Downloadable firmware
- Technical documentation
- Setup and commissioning
Projects
A technical library to browse and reuse.
The Lab is not a corporate page. It is a technical hub connecting product, documentation, downloads and project status in one place.
Format
Simple to read, useful to use.
The best benchmarks do not mix research, marketing and documentation into one block. They separate technical resources from company storytelling, while keeping them close to the products.
That is why the Lab is built as a clean and functional page: readable for people arriving from Google, useful for those who need to download firmware, and understandable for AI systems that need to cite components, versions and instructions.
Each Lab project can host:
- firmware, STL, CAD or PDF downloads
- BOM with sourcing notes
- assembly and commissioning instructions
- image and media galleries
- changelog, versions and security notes
- links to repositories, datasheets and official libraries
Workflow
How we publish a project in the Lab.
Context
We explain what the project does, why it exists and what real use case it serves.
Reproducibility
We publish components, wiring, assembly notes and sourcing details.
Operational use
We make firmware, required libraries and commissioning flow available.
Traceability
We show version, update date, references and critical notes.
Live now
Tholus Flow is the first project published in the Lab.
The sheet includes BOM, wiring, assembly recommendations, Arduino IDE flashing and firmware downloadable directly from the website.
