Note: excellent cheaper choices that do not offer as much but can do some of the course are:
-
Seeduino XAIO 7 $7.00 USD really cheap but can't do much combined abilities
-
Nano 33 Ble Sense $31.10 USD With lots of builtin sensors including accelrometer thi sboard can do a lot
-
Nano RP2040 Connect $25.50 first ever raspberry Pi with Wifi and BLE by Arduino. This board has a lot of promise, just to new for me to have everything working.
-
New Arduino (PRO) IDE An updated but has a few bugs of the old IDE
-
Arduino Cloud IDE From Free and from $3-$24 a month
-
platformIO uses Visual Studio Code
-
C++ compiler - (Possibility with Gitpod) My one here (not yet easy) https://github.com/hpssjellis/my-gitpod-of-edge-impulse
