Description

  • WRL-13287, ESP8266 SparkFun Wi-Fi Shield is an Arduino compatible shield for the ESP8266 Wi-Fi SoC - a leading platform for Internet of Things (IoT) or Wi-Fi-related projects. There are a variety of designs based around the ESP8266, including tiny, modular boards and more accessible development boards like our very own SparkFun ESP8266 Thing. The ESP8266 Wi-Fi Shield finds a middle ground between the Module and the Thing that provides a great introduction to the ESP8266 - without leaving the comfortable hardware confines of your Arduino. The ESP8266 Wi-Fi Shield comes pre-flashed with an AT-command firmware, so it can be controlled by any UART, but it also breaks out and provides command access to all of the ESP8266's I/O. The ESP8266 is much more than a simple serial-to-Wi-Fi gateway
