M5 Projects

🎉 Welcome to the M5Stack Innovation Contest 2025 Page! Please note that we are not affiliated with or sponsored by M5Stack—at least for now. All projects listed here, including TipControl (first time public release August 2025), have been created specifically with this contest in mind. Stay tuned—many more exciting projects are in the pipeline!

📁 Explore Ready-to-Use Projects This pages features a variety of projects you can try using pre-installed samples using backup files. Some messages, events, and macros may refer to a specific device name, so you might need to update the user information accordingly. Don’t worry—it’ll be clearly explained in each project’s Code Appendix section.

🚀 Getting Started Before jumping into the projects, we recommend going through the Hello Tutorials to get familiar with the basics. Of course, if you’re the adventurous type, you can dive right in. Click where no one has been before and report a possible crash:))

Following files are included when you install a firmware upgrade. You find them in your Documents/TipControl2/BackUps folder.

🛸 Launch Your Own Tech Missions!

Calling all creators from across the galaxy! 🚀 You’re invited to engineer your own projects using M5 devices and ESP32-based tech (except those elusive P4 chips—they’re still in hypersleep until Q3 2025).

Need a driver for your alien hardware? Transmit your request to HQ—we’ll decode it and get to work.

And if you’ve got the spirit of a cosmic pioneer, consider joining our volunteer fleet. Together, we’ll explore strange new circuits, seek out new sensors, and boldly build what no one has built before. 🧑‍🚀✨
