OK, so I decided to go a step further from my last project and develop a controller with a python GUI but communicating via wireless, instead of the serial port.
For this purpose, I used an ESP8266 module. It is possible to modify the code inside the module, but I wanted to use it as is, and write the code for an arduino mega instead, where the ESP was connected. This way, it becomes easier to connect to different networks, by modifying the SSID and password on the arduino instead of flashing the firmware on the module each time. The GUI is based on the code used on the analog_control I posted earlier, although the code is very different. Here are some pictures of the setting
The code is available on Github, as usual.

I dont usually post the schematics of this, as they are small projects, but if you are interested on it, just drop me a line. Next step: analog control with an Android application, using Android studio. Stay tuned!
