Pycom WiPy 2.0 - WiFi+Bluetooth MicroPython IoT Platform

WiPy 2.0 is Pycom’s updated enterprise grade IOT development platform. The tiny MicroPython enabled WiFi & Bluetooth IoT development platform. With a 1km WiFi range, state of the art Espressif ESP32 chipset and dual processor, the WiPy is all about taking the Internet of Things to the next level.

Pycom have written a powerful and intuitive Python API to take advantage of every feature of the hardware. The learning curve is minimal. Simply put, Pycom boards are all about Python and the internet, but with rocket fuel.

Note: Pycom modules are powered by the new and feature-packed Espressif ESP32 chip. As a result, their firmware is evolving constantly as the ESP32 IDF matures. Regular firmware updates are therefore provided.
