NEW PRODUCTS – WiPy IOT Development Platform / WiPy Expansion Board
The WiPy is an enterprise grade IOT development platform that runs Python in real time with the perfect blend of power, speed, friendliness, and flexibility. Within a few minutes you can wirelessly connect to it and get a Python REPL command line.
In addition to all the hardware specs Pycom developed powerful and intuitive Python API to take advantage of every feature of the hardware. Working with Python on the WiPy feels just like working with Python on a PC.
Features:
- MicroPython enabled – you can use a high level language and forget about buffer memory management 10x faster programming
- Small and light to fit in any enclosure or project
- Fits in a standard breadboard (with headers)
- Ultra-low power usage: 850uA with the WiFi connection active
Check out the tutorials and quickstart guide at Pycom to see how fast it is to get going!
