DIY Launch

We regularly report on new development boards and what could be considered Arduino’s first single-board computer. Together with M5Stack, Arduino has now developed the so-called Nesso N1, which is a new device that is already available for $49. The system includes a battery with a capacity of 250mAh.

Touchscreen and buttons onboard

Among other things, the development kit can be used to create custom smart home products. It features a 1.14-inch display with a resolution of 135 x 240 pixels as well as two programmable buttons. Meanwhile, an integrated buzzer provides audio feedback.

Built-in sensors

The Arduino Nesso N1 is further equipped with sensors and supports wireless connections. A 6-axis IMU is integrated and can detect motion, acceleration and orientation. Moreover, the development kit is powered by the ESP32-C6, which is limited in performance but suitable for many IoT applications.

Expandable and wireless connectivity

The Arduino Nesso N1 supports WiFi, Bluetooth, Thread and ZigBee. It also supports LoRa connections for long-distance communication. An IR LED is included as well and can be used to control older televisions. USB ports are also onboard, while additional sensors can be connected via Groove, Qwiic and a HAT port with eight individual pins.

I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.

My fascination for technology goes back a long way to the Pentium II era. Modding, overclocking and treasuring computer hardware has since become an integral part of my life. As a student, I further developed a keen interest in mobile technologies that can make the stressful college life so much easier. After I fell in love with the creation of digital content while working in a marketing position, I now scour the web to bring you the most exciting topics in the world of tech. Outside the office, I’m particularly passionate about motorsports and mountain biking.
