Description
If you have an existing *Bee compatible board. This module may be a perfect, drop in replacement to add Location Enabled wireless to your existing solution. Tap into the “maker” ecosystem and access many Arduino, MicroPython or other rapid prototyping compatible *Bee shields or adapters.
Drop in replacement
Compatible with many Aretas developer boards
Compatible with Aretas USB adapter
**Due to the large size of the module footprint, double check compatibility with your board
IoT Applications
RTLS Location Tracking
Combined with the necessary anchors and middleware, track objects in 2D and 3D space indoors and outdoors (and in GPS denied environments).
RTLS Ranging
If you just need ranging features, use two or more SwarmBee LE enabled boards.
Rapid Development in your IDE
Java (PureJavaComm)
Python (PySerial)
Other (RealTerm, Termite, PuTTY)
Bee to Bee communication
Module to module communication for connecting your pc, laptop, edge device or tablet to a remote device
Modular Wireless
Swap radio modules. Upgrade XBee capabilities, change from UWB to Chirp location, etc.
Low cost
Aretas developer boards are an inexpensive, easy way to develop a proof of concept or market ready solution.
