Gravity: IN100 BLE Sensor Data Broadcasting Module

SKU: TEL0149

Gravity: IN100 BLE Sensor Data Broadcasting Module is a wireless beacon with built-in 11-bit ADC, collecting digital/analog sensor data and broadcasting via Bluetooth. Bluetooth devices (smartphones, ESP32, etc.) access data in range. It uses low-power BLE 5.3, supports iBeacon/Eddystone/custom formats, and configures (broadcast settings) via GUI without programming. After setup, it auto-runs on power-on. Ideal for IoT in smart farms, offices, factories, warehouses. Note: Need 3.3V USB-TTL tool for configuration.

    2. Configuration and Burning Guide

    This guide provides a detailed walkthrough for configuring and burning the Gravity: BLE sensor beacon using the NanoBeaconConfigTool. It includes customization of advertising data formats (iBeacon, Eddystone, Custom), ADC and GPIO configuration, hardware connections, and burning procedures. The article emphasizes careful data verification before burning, as the process is irreversible, and highlights the use of 'Run in RAM' for testing configurations before finalization.

    3. Usage Example for Mobile App - Get Sensor Data

    This example demonstrates how to get sensor data from the BLE Sensor Beacon using a mobile app (nRF Connect).

    4. Usage Example for ESP32 - Get Sensor Data

    This article offers a detailed guide on using the ESP32 with Arduino IDE to acquire sensor data, specifically focusing on BLE Sensor Beacon and LM35 Temperature Sensor, including hardware preparation, sample code, and step-by-step operation procedures.
