About This Project
Because the native gpio of Raspberry are limited, I decided to try using Arduino, but to connect to the Internet I had no wifi shield only Ethernet but did not have enough cable to connect the Arduino to my Modem, and seeing community projects, I saw that ESP8266 had connected a Cayenne, and apparently there are not native support for this board, so I got to thinking. First I thought also use my NodeMCU, but I remembered that I have a LinkIt Duo and LinkIt ONE, both with WiFi connection too so it would seem more interesting. Of course we should get me to the source codes to make an adjustment.
What’s Connected
LinkIt ONE over WiFi to Cayenne
Reviewing sources, apparently quite it used Blynk libraries, the good news is that Blynk has support for LinkIt Duo, so it takes only create new bridges to Cayenne.
