Prototype IoT with $5 WiFi Microcontroller and DeviceHive

We are proud to announce an upcoming release of DeviceHive firmware that turns a $5 WiFi modem into a fully functional standalone IoT board that doesn’t require programming on device side, and you can access it’s GPIO, ADC, PWM, I2C and SPI from DeviceHive cloud. While being marketed as a WiFi modem which can be attached to a microcontroller, it is actually a fully capable IoT board by itself and doesn’t need any extra microcontroller. Using DeviceHive cloud you can access it’s pins right from
