Mate Studio, a Turkish Workshop for Tiny Electronic Companions
A home workshop documenting handmade ESP32 devices, from a pocket drawing panel and miniature camera to a planned desk pet, copilot, drone, and terrarium.
Field notes
The studio documents hardware at component level, including an ESP32-S3 Touch board, 1000 mAh flat LiPo cell, TP4056 charging circuit, flash storage, and a home-printed enclosure. Projects are explicitly separated by status rather than presented as a uniform product line: Tiny Mate remains a planned OLED-and-touch desktop companion, while Mate Drone targets a 3.5-inch 4S FPV configuration. Mate Cam is the listed product with an external Shopier sales path.
