AMBER wireless Unveils AMB2621 Bluetooth Smart Module

AMBER wireless GmbH, a Würth Elektronik eiSos Group company, offers an extremely compact and energy-saving wireless module - the AMB2621 Bluetooth Smart module.

Pycom is a young company producing small modules supporting multiple network topologies. Partly funded through a few Kickstarter campaigns they are now up and running. The goal of their products is to enable easy access to the Internet of Things (IoT). To achieve this goal they have crammed as much wireless network technology as possible into a few small modules and made them programmable with MicroPython.

On Kickstarter a campaign has been started for the RokBlok, which, in their own words, is the world's smallest wireless record player. And it is also portable. It is really a “Soundwagon”, but one with Bluetooth functionality.

The number of keyboards around on the globe says nothing about their intrinsic quality or indeed the value of any texts written on them. In the past, many fine books and datasheets were written, and fabulous electronic products developed, using a contraption called a typewriter.

This is about a Bluetooth data-acquisition system for hang gliders (and ultralight aircrafts). The author is a hang gliding amateur and would like to display flight data on his Android device. Unfortunately the author does not have the skills to design such a device, but he can provide the specifications. He is also willing to write the software.
