3 Easy Steps for IoT Connectivity
Put a micro:bit into the SLX Wappsto:bit extension board
In the MakeCode IDE, use the Wappsto by Seluxit blocks to configure your IoT connectivity
You now automatically get data in the point-and-click configurable Dashboard in Wappsto by Seluxit.
SLX Wappsto:bit will be available in three versions. All versions will feature Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. The NB-IoT version will feature NB-IoT connectivity and the NB-IoT+ product will additionally feature GPS.
NB-IoT is particularly well suited to projects that require remote data capture, for example measuring air quality at outside locations, where GPS can further enrich the data.
In the Wappsto by Seluxit environment, data can be viewed out-of-the-box with our standard Dashboard, and students can continue to develop with Seluxit’s easy-to-use tools.

micro:bits are pocket-sized computer designed to inspire critical thinking and creativity in children. BBC micro:bits also enable students to make use of electronics to become citizen scientists.
micro:bit has native support for Bluetooth (BLE), allowing students to, for example, use an app to interact with their micro:bits. But getting signals and data into the cloud requires an extension board and a cloud backend.
SLX Wappsto:bits are IoT extension boards including the cloud backend and dashboard for use with the BBC micro:bit educational electronics series.
There are versions for supporting fast Bluetooth / Wi-Fi connections in classrooms as well as supporting remote, battery-optimized connectivity via NB-IoT, with the option for GPS.
