I'd like to see a video or project using the Arduino Nano 33 BLE, Nano 33 BLE Sense, or Nano 33 IOT.  With BLE, gyroscopes, magnetometers, etc baked into these little boards, I think they're worth their own video to show any coding differences between using them and using other Arduinos with bluetooth modules hooked up to their serial pins. 

There could be multiple videos from these new boards if you wanted to utilize one in your robot build (as a peripheral or central) and if you wanted to test your luck with Chirp to make your robot communicate with other robots around the shop. 

 

A future project I'm considering is trying to get a robot to talk to Google Home or Alexa with Chirp, then having the smart speaker respond in English. Haha

 

 

Thanks!

Tim

I agree, these are intriguing devices. I haven't purchased any yet, however, as I need to find a Canadian distributor.  Amazon in Canada doesn't carry these, and during the current COVID-19 crisis I can't get packages from outside the country.

 

If anyone can recommend a good distributor in Canada for these I'll pick a few up. I agree that they would make a great video topic.

I'm looking forward to you getting your hands on them and explaining what advertising and characteristics (I think?) are with BLE lol.  I can get an HC05 to do what I want, but not BLE.   Also, if you'd show how to use bluetooth (non-BLE) on the onboard chips for these Nanos, I'd appreciate it =)
