Code Examples
### Example 1: Basic Fan Control using Arduino
In this example, we will control the fan using an Arduino board and its built-in digital output.
```c++
const int fanPin = 9;  // Pin 9 for fan control
void setup() {
  pinMode(fanPin, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
  digitalWrite(fanPin, HIGH);  // Turn the fan on
  delay(5000);  // Wait for 5 seconds
  digitalWrite(fanPin, LOW);  // Turn the fan off
  delay(5000);  // Wait for 5 seconds
}
```
### Example 2: PWM Fan Speed Control using Raspberry Pi
In this example, we will control the fan speed using a Raspberry Pi and its built-in PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) capability.
```python
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
import time
# Set up GPIO mode
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
# Set up fan pin as PWM output
fan_pin = 18
GPIO.setup(fan_pin, GPIO.PWM)
# Set PWM frequency to 50 Hz
pwm_frequency = 50
fan_pwm = GPIO.PWM(fan_pin, pwm_frequency)
try:
    while True:
        # Set fan speed to 50%
        fan_pwm.start(50)
        time.sleep(2)
        # Set fan speed to 100%
        fan_pwm.start(100)
        time.sleep(2)
except KeyboardInterrupt:
    # Clean up
    fan_pwm.stop()
    GPIO.cleanup()
```
### Example 3: Fan Control using ESP32 and Wi-Fi (Web Interface)
In this example, we will control the fan using an ESP32 board and create a simple web interface to turn the fan on/off and adjust its speed using Wi-Fi.

const char wifi_ssid = "your_wifi_ssid";
const char wifi_password = "your_wifi_password";
AsyncWebServer server(80);
const int fanPin = 32;  // Pin 32 for fan control
void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);
// Connect to Wi-Fi
  WiFi.begin(wifi_ssid, wifi_password);
  while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
    delay(1000);
    Serial.println("Connecting to WiFi...");
  }
Serial.println("Connected to WiFi");
  Serial.println("Starting web server");
// Set up fan pin as output
  pinMode(fanPin, OUTPUT);
// Create web page
  server.on("/", HTTP_GET, [](AsyncWebServerRequest request) {
    request->send(200, "text/html",
      "<html><body>"
      "<h1>Fan Control</h1>"
      "<p><a href=""/on""><button>Turn ON</button></a></p>"
      "<p><a href=""/off""><button>Turn OFF</button></a></p>"
      "<p><a href=""/speed?value=50""><button>Set Speed 50%</button></a></p>"
      "<p><a href=""/speed?value=100""><button>Set Speed 100%</button></a></p>"
      "</body></html>");
  });
// Handle fan control requests
  server.on("/on", HTTP_GET, [](AsyncWebServerRequest request) {
    digitalWrite(fanPin, HIGH);
    request->send(200, "text/plain", "Fan turned ON");
  });
server.on("/off", HTTP_GET, [](AsyncWebServerRequest request) {

    int speed = request->getParam("value")->value().toInt();
    analogWrite(fanPin, speed);
    request->send(200, "text/plain", "Fan speed set to " + String(speed) + "%");
