Introduction

Bluetooth-enabled technology has become ubiquitous in today’s world. The average person would be hard pressed not to use Bluetooth during their daily activities. Although Bluetooth may seem difficult to work with, it’s fairly straightforward to start incorporating Bluetooth into your projects.

In our previous Bluetooth tutorial Sending Sensor Data Via Bluetooth, we showed how to use Bluetooth to transmit data from a triple axis accelerometer. Continuing off of the first tutorial, we are going to expand this project to include more capabilities for visualizing and interacting with your accelerometer data once you're transmitting.

For a refresher on that tutorial, check it out here:

In this tutorial, we will show you how to get started on incorporating Bluetooth into your electronics projects. This project uses a SparkFun Thing Plus ESP32 Wroom USB-C to display data from a Triple Axis Accelerometer over Bluetooth.
