The Tikk is a demo board that showcases Golioth's Bluetooth-to-Cloud capabilities. It solders to a ProMicro form factor development board and has LEDs, motor drivers, sensors, NFC tag emulation, and a battery interface.
The ESP32 and the product line variants often run Bluetooth alongside Wi-Fi. This post shows how you can use the Bluetooth capabilities of an Espressif chip to talk back to the internet when a Wi-Fi signal isn't the right fit for your application.
What happens when you're ready to utilize Bluetooth-to-Cloud, but are far from a power point and network connection and want to ensure your Bluetooth nodes' data still shows up on the cloud? Utilize the power of the sun!
Less than two weeks after Golioth Location general availability, we have expanded the service to support gateway-based positioning, making it possible to obtain the location of devices that do not have GNSS, cellular, or Wi-Fi capabilities.
As more deployments using Golioth's Bluetooth-to-Cloud hit the field, we will be featuring Bluetooth gateways that are up to the task. Today we're featuring the Ezurio Sentrius MG100, which is well targeted at industrial cellular needs.
Golioth's Bluetooth-to-Cloud is now working on the Renesas (Dialog) DA14695, bringing our total vendor count up to 4. This post and video show the device talking to an external sensor and transmitting that data through a standard gateway back to the Golioth cloud, enabling it with the same capabilities as an IP based device on Golioth.
The NXP FRDM-MCXW71 works with Golioth's Bluetooth-to-Cloud capabilities; that means it can communicate back through a standard gateway to the cloud and send data like any other device on Golioth.
