Quick Connect IoT
Quick Connect IoT is a combination of hardware and software modules that simplifies the design process of
developing system solutions. It allows you to put together systems to evaluate sensors, connectivity, and the MCU
in a full system environment with a minimal amount of set-up time or without writing the basic firmware structure.
Hardware modules are available with low-level drivers and middleware that allow you to immediately start writing
the application layer code.
This manual reviews the Quick Connect IoT with an example that uses a specific sensor, but you are encouraged
to consider other scenarios and explore all the devices available.
