Introduction Are you looking to get your data gathering project hooked into the “Internet-of-Things”? Then check out data.sparkfun.com! It makes posting data to the web as easy as constructing a URL and POSTing it to a server. I wanted to create a quick project to test out SparkFun’s data logging service. Combining an Arduino, XBee WiFi module, and a variety of gas, temperature, and light sensors I built an ...

Get ready to create distributed sensor systems and intelligent interactive devices using the ZigBee wireless networking protocol and Series 2 XBee radios. By the time you're halfway through this fast-paced, hands-on guide, you'll have built a series of useful projects, including a complete ZigBee wireless network that delivers remotely sensed data. Radio networking is creating revolutions in volcano monitor ...

Hi. This Instructable will guide you through the process of wirelessly  programming your Arduino using two XBees. I just finished designing a wireless EEG system with the XBee modules, so I've become quite fluent in their programming and have just now been able to accomplish this. It still amazes me how difficult it has been to try to wirelessly program the Arduino. On top of that no one has been able to do ...

Several years ago when I started messing around with Arduino and building my own weather station, I bought a few XBee radio chips with the idea of setting up some more remote sites without having to run wires out to the sensor stations. I spend several frustrating hours trying to get the radios to talk to each other, but couldn’t get them to work (I think this was because they were in API mode instead of AT ...

XBee Wireless Shield description: The XBee Shield simplifies the task of interfacing an XBee with your Arduino. Works with all XBee modules including the Series 1 and Series 2.5, standard and Pro version. This is SparkFun's own design and is a distant relative to the official XBee Shield from Arduino. Power is taken from the 5V pin of the Arduino and regulated on-board to 3.3VDC before being supplied to the ...

SEGMeter description: Provides 6 inputs for Hall-effect current-clamps to measure domestic and industrial power consumption. Energy usage data can be stored by the Arduino, accessed in real time, or reported to another system via wireless or wired connections. This shield also provides mounting headers for an XBee wireless module, allowing it to be part of a wireless mesh network of sensor / control nodes. ...

XBee Shield v1.1 description: The XBee shield allows an Arduino to communicate wirelessly using Zigbee. It is based on the XBee module from MaxStream. The module can communicate up to 100 feet indoors or 300 feet outdoors (with line-of-sight). It can be used as a serial/usb replacement or you can put it into a command mode and configure it for a variety of broadcast and mesh networking options. XBee Shield ...

Stalker description: Seeeduino Stalker is an extensive Wireless Sensor Network node, with native data logging features and considered modular structure. It could be conveniently used as sensor hub or integrated data collector for monitoring, tracking and etc. Stalker specification: Arduino compatible, based on Seeeduino Native RTC, On board CR2032 battery holder Native micro SD card socket Easy stackable I2 ...

Bees Shield description: Holds 2 xBee or compatible modules, has a 3.3V regulator, small prototyping area and reset buttons for both the Arduino and one for each xBee footprint. Switch to change the connection of the xBee socket to the serial pins to "cross over" to allow the xBee to be programmed via the FTDI from the host computer. Activity LEDs for both xBee sockets. Bees Shield specification: Dual Bee t ...

Pebble Shield description: A multi-purpose shield designed for classroom use and for quick prototyping of a wide variety of projects. Provides a significant prototyping area for custom projects, and a number of optional sub-systems that can be included or excluded as required: Pebble Shield specification: 20x4 LCD. XBee module. Button inputs. Analog inputs. Temperature sensor (DS18B20 on 1-wire bus) Light s ...

Xbee Shield description: The Xbee shield allows an Arduino board to communicate wirelessly using Zigbee. It is based on the Xbee module from MaxStream. The module can communicate up to 100 feet indoors or 300 feet outdoors (with line-of-sight). It can be used as a serial/usb replacement or you can put it into a command mode and configure it for a variety of broadcast and mesh networking options. The shield ...

Wattmeter Shield description: AC current sensors. Sensors: Clamp CT (U_RD) x 2 Option: XBee socket Wattmeter Shield specification:   Wattmeter Shield   For more detail: Wattmeter Shield ...
