Hi everyone,

The beginning of May found us celebrating not only this year’s Labor Day Festival, which was a four-day public holiday in China, but also the new phase of Espressif’s collaborations with Google and Microsoft. Our popular ESP32-DevKitC now enables an easy evaluation and development for ESP32-based products connected to the Google Cloud IoT Core. Similarly, our ESP32-Azure IoT Kit is dedicated to supporting Microsoft’s Azure IoT cloud services. We have recently added “Joint Development” to our dropdown menu under the “Products” tab on the landing page of our website, in order to offer our customers a detailed presentation of the two development kits mentioned above. You can also find a short description below.

ESP32-DevKitC-GoogleCloud-IoT is built around ESP32-WROOM-32Dand provides out-of-the-box Google Cloud IoT connectivity. This unbeatable dev kit enables rapid prototyping by being breadboard-friendly and feature-rich. We’re equally proud of our ESP32-Azure IoT Kit, which is a development kit designed with powerful functions, such as sensor data acquisition and cloud platform access, as well as a wide range of applications.

Other news you can read in this month’s newsletter include:

  • ESP-IDF v3.2, the latest version of Espressif’s IoT Development framework, which has just been released;
  • The ekey UNO finger scanner, an innovative security system, which has been based on Espressif’s ESP32-WROVER module and made in Austria;
  • LyraT-Mini, a new development board that is small in size, yet highly versatile and powerful, which will soon be added to Espressif’s Lyra series; and last, but not least,
  • The Complete ESP32 Projects Guide, Prof. Dragan Ibrahim’s new book about ESP32, which has just been published by Elektor.
