 ====== System Control ======
+{{youtube>KcwmSME05C0? }}
 The System Control device, the main component, utilizes an [[https://www.wemos.cc/en/latest/s3/s3_mini.html|ESP32 S3 Mini]] and a LCD display (128x64). The main purpose was to control the LEDs for the day/night cycle.

 ===== Extensibility =====
-This system is build to be very extendable. So I designed a wireless system for indoor usage based on Bluetooth LE. This decision was mainly of two reasons. First, I wanted to use BLE within a new project and  the second, the most important one, was to be independent of the MCU. Currently I use ESP32, which can handle WiFi and BLE, but I also want to test STM32 (which only include BLE - e.g. the [[https://www.st.com/en/microcontrollers-microprocessors/stm32wb-series.html|STM32WB-Series]]).
+This system is built to be highly extensible. For this purpose, I designed a wireless system for indoor use based on Bluetooth LE. This decision was primarily driven by two factors: firstly, my desire to gain experience with BLE in a new project, and secondly (and more importantly), the aim to ensure independence from any specific MCU.
+Currently, I'm using an ESP32, which supports both Wi-Fi and BLE. However, I also plan to test other microcontrollers, such as those from the STM32 family (for instance, the [[https://www.st.com/en/microcontrollers-microprocessors/stm32wb-series.html|STM32WB-Series]], which offers strong BLE capabilities), to maintain this flexibility.
 ===== Technical Details =====
-Every client advertised a specific service. The System Control scans all BLE devices and filters for this UUID. Within this service is a capabilities characteristic, which send the capabilities after the System Control activate notify on this. This way the System Control can build the UI accordingly to the transmitted data.
+Each client advertises a specific service. The System Control scans all nearby BLE devices and filters for this service UUID. This service includes a 'capabilities' characteristic, which transmits the client's capabilities once the System Control enables notifications for this characteristic. This allows the System Control to build its UI dynamically, according to the received data.
-More indepth information will be following, after I finished the MVP.
+More in-depth information will be provided once the MVP is complete.
