Resources and Going Further
Now that you've sent signed message between two systems, you are ready to integrate some security into your projects! In these examples we have used hard-wired serial messages between two Arduinos. That communication channel could be anything: Bluetooth, RFM69s, Wifi and the internet, you name it! Good luck!

SparkFun Photodetector (MAX30101) Hookup Guide
The SparkFun Photodetector - MAX30101 (Qwiic) is the successor to the MAX30105 particle sensor, a highly sensitive optical sensor. This tutorial will get you started on retrieving the raw data from the MAX30101 sensor.
OpenLog Artemis Hookup Guide
How to use and re-program the OpenLog Artemis, an open source datalogger. The OLA comes preprogrammed to automatically log data. The OLA can also record serial data, analog voltages, or readings from external Qwiic-enabled I2C devices. Some of these Qwiic-enabled devices include GPS/GNSS modules, pressure, altitude, humidity, temperature, air quality, environment, distance, and weight sensors.
