If you're looking for a tool for both Long Range sensor network management and Car Hacking, our newly released Wio-E5 CAN Development Kit is based on the Wio-E5 module, with a built-in CAN controller MCP2515 that supports CAN FD, CAN2.0, and RS485 communication. It's a versatile and useful tool that provides an excellent user experience.
Wio-E5 Series Comparison
We've enhanced our development platform by updating the integrated Wio-WM1110 Module, built on LoRaWAN® communication. This module offers not just the LoRa communication technology found in the Wio-E5 but also includes a radio front-end with multiple positioning features, such as GNSS (GPS/ BeiDou), Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth. It's ideal for both indoor and outdoor positioning needs of developers.
