XBee Arduino-compatible coding platform speeds samples and prototypes

Designers looking to learn more about how wireless connectivity can kick-start application designs and engineering creativity can now source the Digi XBee Arduino-Compatible Coding Platform - exclusively from Digi-Key. The platform features an Arduino-compatible microprocessor and three XBee 802.15.4 modules, as well as LEDs, adapters, cables, and other components, along with software that lets you build your own samples and prototypes. The kit includes five interactive projects that use the processing open source language for quick and easy development. An additional five projects use the Arduino-compatible microprocessor. Whether you're an aspiring engineer, senior designer, or a curious hobbyist, you get step-by-step guidance on how to assemble kit components to build wireless circuits, prototypes, and other demonstration-ready applications and devices, says the company.
