M5Stack K007 FIRE IoT Development Kit, available now from Mouser, offers a nine-axis IMU sensor (six-axis posture acceleration measurement plus three-axis magnetic measurement). This is equipped with more hardware resources such as 16MB Flash plus 4MB PSRAM, enhanced base (M5GO base and M5GO CHG base), and a larger battery. The kit is a modular, stackable, scalable, and portable device powered with an ESP-32 core. The ESP-core makes it open source, low cost, full-function, and simple to handle new product development on all stages. This IoT development kit includes circuit design, PCB design, software, mould design and production.

The development kit comes with three separable parts – top part, middle part, and bottom part. The top part includes all sorts of processors, chips, sockets, 2.4G antenna, ESP32, power management IC, an LCD screen, and other interface components. The middle part is called the M5GO base, which offers a lithium battery, M-BUS socket, LED bar, and three more GROVE Ports. The bottom part is a charge table that can be connected to the base via POGO pins. This kit is highly efficient, covered with industrial-grade case and ESP32-based development board. The development kit integrates with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules.

Applications include IoT terminal controller, stem education product, and DIY creation.
