The Beginning

Hi! I'm the designer and project lead. Thanks for visiting our page!

How did it all begin?

The idea came to me one day when I needed to turn off my 3D printer remotely. I had an ESP32 and a power strip, and it turned out to be cheaper than using a smart plug. After completing that small project, I realized that if I developed it further, I could create a kind of "Swiss Army knife" for automation and IoT

Why Focus on Education?

Since I was young, I’ve worked with electronic devices, and I always found the prototyping process challenging. Components are often bulky, with lots of wiring that quickly becomes frustrating. And if you're also the one doing the programming, getting everything connected correctly can be exhausting.
Palumba was created to solve those problems. It’s an excellent tool for getting started with these types of projects, allowing you to focus on programming and move forward step by step. It’s also a more affordable alternative compared to buying parts individually on the retail market.
