    Bonjour à tous,

    Je souhaite vous partager un projet que nous avons démarrer il y a quelques mois chez I-SYST Inc. et qui sera lancé très prochainement sur Crowd Supply, une plateforme de socio financement entièrement dédieé aux projets d'électronique.

    Il s'agit d'un nouveau module IoT appelé BlueIO832-Mini, le BlueIO832-Mini est le premier module IoT micro contrôleur/Bluetooth à offrir 4 fonctionnalités intégrées entièrement configurables soit le Serial Interface Bridge (UART, SPI et I2C), GPIO (x6), Analog-to-Digital Converter et NFC tag. Le module permet non seulement de lire les informations des capteurs ou autres appareils qui pourraient être branchés dessus, mais également d'en prendre le contrôle. Une première application mobile iOS (iPhone et iPad) et Android (téléphone et tablette) permet de faire du plug-and-play et de lire immédiatement les données des capteurs/appareils. Une suite d'applications mobiles est en développement.

    Ce module a été développé pour aider les amateurs et les enfants à apprendre l'électronique sans apprendre à coder, mais aussi pour les compagnies pour tester rapidement une idée et développer rapidement n'importe quel projet pour prouver un concept. Cela permet donc de réduire considérablement les coûts de développement.

    Voici le lien de la campagne de financement participatif sur Crowd Supply sur laquelle tout est expliqué plus en détails:
    Campagne Crowd Supply - BlueIO832-Mini

    N'hésitez pas à vous inscrire sur la plateforme pour recevoir des nouvelles au sujet du lancement officiel de notre module.

    Je vous remercie énormément!

    Hi there,

    I would like to share with you a project that we started a few months ago at I-SYST Inc. and which will be launched very soon on Crowd Supply, a crowdfunding platform entirely dedicated to electronics projects.

    This is a new IoT module called BlueIO832-Mini, the BlueIO832-Mini is the first micro controller/Bluetooth IoT module to offer 4 fully configurable integrated features either Serial Interface Bridge (UART, SPI and I2C), GPIO ( x6), Analog-to-Digital Converter and NFC tag. The module not only makes it possible to read information from sensors or other devices that may be connected to it, but also to take control of it. A first iOS (iPhone and iPad) and Android (phone and tablet) mobile application allows plug-and-play and immediate reading of sensor/device data. A suite of mobile applications is in development.

    This module was developed to help hobbyists and children learn electronics without learning to code, but also for companies to quickly test an idea and quickly develop any project to prove a concept. This, therefore significantly reduces development costs.

    Here is the link of the crowdfunding campaign on Crowd Supply on which everything is explained in more detail:
    Crowd Supply Campaign - BlueIO832-Mini

    Do not hesitate to register on the platform to receive news about the official launch of our module.

    Thank you very much!

    Thank you very much Michel!
    This idea/project came from my partner who is also the president of the company. He always felt like that it may be difficult and daunting to someone regarding electronics in general. He wanted to create a product that makes it easy to quickly test an idea or simply enjoy being creative do what comes to mind.
    Since coding is a major aspect too, having the BlueIO832 that comes pre-programmed can remove any stress and/or long hours of learning how to code.

    Thanks for sharing Jonathan!

    Nice choice with the nRF52832: have you considered Espruino as an option for users to program the device in JavaScript directly from their web browser using Web Bluetooth?  We've had great experience working with Espruino, for instance with the Puck.js.

    I'd be happy to complete the integration of the BlueIO832-Mini with Pareto Anywhere by updating our advlib-ble libraries.  Just provide some documentation on what the module will advertise and I can take it from there.

    All the best with your project!

    Thank you Jeffrey!

    My partner is the engineer behind this and over the years he developed an open-source library called IOsonata that we are using on all our IoT modules. All our products are based on nRF52832 or nRF52840. I'll show your product to my partner and if you want to discuss with, I'd be happy to connect him with you.

    Here is the webpage of the BlueIO832-Mini, you will find all the information you need about it. If you have any other questions, please let me know.

    Thanks again for the kind words, it is really appreciated!
