For Raspberry Pi, ESP32 and nRF52 with Python, Arduino and Zephyr
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) radio chips are ubiquitous from Raspberry Pi to light bulbs. BLE is an elaborate technology with a comprehensive specification, but the basics are quite accessible.
A progressive and systematic approach will lead you far in mastering this wireless communication technique, which is essential for working in low power scenarios.
In this book, you’ll learn how to:
Discover BLE devices in the neighborhood by listening to their advertisements.
Create your own BLE devices advertising data.
Connect to BLE devices such as heart rate monitors and proximity reporters.
Create secure connections to BLE devices with encryption and authentication.
Understand BLE service and profile specifications and implement them.
Reverse engineer a BLE device with a proprietary implementation and control it with your own software.
Make your BLE devices use as little power as possible.
This book shows you the ropes of BLE programming with Python and the Bleak library on a Raspberry Pi or PC, with C++ and NimBLE-Arduino on Espressif’s ESP32 development boards, and with C on one of the development boards supported by the Zephyr real-time operating system, such as Nordic Semiconductor's nRF52 boards.
Starting with a very little amount of theory, you’ll develop code right from the beginning. After you’ve completed this book, you’ll know enough to create your own BLE applications.
The flexibility of the Artemis module starts with SparkFun's Arduino core. You can program and use the Artemis module just like you would an Uno or any other Arduino. The time to first blink is just 5 minutes away! We built the core from the ground up, making it fast and as lightweight as possible.
Next is the module itself. Measuring 10 x 15 mm, the Artemis module has all the support circuitry you need to use the fantastic Ambiq Apollo3 processor in your next project. We're proud to say the SparkFun Artemis module is the first open-source hardware module with the design files freely and easily available. We've carefully designed the module so that implementing Artemis into your design can be done with low-cost 2-layer PCBs and 8mil trace/space.
Made in the USA at SparkFun's Boulder production line, the Artemis module is designed for consumer-grade products. This truly differentiates the Artemis from its Arduino brethren. Ready to scale your product? The Artemis will grow with you beyond the Uno footprint and Arduino IDE. Additionally, the Artemis has an advanced HAL (hardware abstraction layer), allowing users to push the modern Cortex-M4F architecture to its limit.
The SparkFun Artemis Module is fully FCC/IC/CE certified and is available in full tape and reel quantities. With 1M flash and 384k RAM, you'll have plenty of room for your code. The Artemis module runs at 48MHz with a 96MHz turbo mode available and with Bluetooth to boot!

This is the first title in the 'Hands-On' series in which Arduino platform co-founder, David Cuartielles, introduces board programming, and demonstrates the making of an 8-bit Sound Generator.
After power on, YDLIDAR G4 start rotating and scanning the environment around it. The scanning distance is 16 m and the device offers a scanning rate of 9,000 times per second.
It makes detailed examinations of its environment and can locate the smallest of objects surrounding it. Featuring a high-precision brushless motor and encoder disc mounted on bearings, it rotates smoothly and has a service life of up to 500,000 hours of operation.
The G4 is an inexpensive solution for projects that require obstacle detection, obstacle avoidance, and/or simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM). All YDLIDAR products are ROS ready.
