Hosting simple applications onboard can let you make a very compact IoT solution.

Thus you can manage sensors and elaborate autonomously their signals and measurements. Or you can exploit its full power by implementing the logic inside the board itself. That means that you can use this board as a simple WiFi connection board, offloading the main processor of your controller from the WiFi communication management. This chip implements a full TCP/IP protocol stack and the very interesting feature is that it has also a great computational power onboard.

WiFiĮSP8266 WiFi Module is a WiFi serial transceiver module, based on ESP8266 SoC. Here we will sum up the various possibilities you can use to connect your controller using different wireless protocols. Consequently, the most important component needed is the “connection and communication” module that enables the remote interaction between the device and “the community” via internet. One of the strongest trend we have seen this year at CES2015 is, as you can imagine easily, the IoT (Internet of Things) development.
