This release introduces support for Zigbee networks and the Digi XBee3 Zigbee Mesh Kit through the XBee3 Zigbee element, available within the Studio Element Library. Using the Zigbee Mesh Kit, you can send data across devices over Zigbee on a custom Zigbee mesh network and have the data then forwarded to Atmosphere. We’ve also expanded on our LoRa support with the addition of the MikroElektronika LoRa 2 Click board, which works exclusively with The Things Network on Atmosphere. We’re also welcoming the Cypress PSoC 6 Wi-Fi BT Prototyping Kit into the growing library of supported hardware in Atmosphere Studio. Lastly, we’ve made a series of smaller improvements throughout the UI to enhance the Atmosphere experience.
