Displaying Sensor Data with Bluetooth

The Project: Displaying Accelerometer Data Over Bluetooth

For this project, we are going to connect an accelerometer to the SparkFun Thing Plus ESP32 board in order to display axis data using a few different methods. We’ll keep this example as simple as possible by using Qwiic Connect hardware to eliminate the need for soldering. The hardware is simple; it includes an ESP32 Thing Plus Wroom, and a Qwiic SparkFun Triple Axis Accelerometer module. You’ll also need a USB to USB-C cable to load code from the Arduino IDE onto your board, as well as a power supply for the ESP32 Thing Plus Wroom. You can add all the items that you will need for this project to your cart using the wishlist below.

Each option for displaying data will have a slightly different hardware hookup.
