Xenon is a mesh-enabled IoT development board from Particle, low-cost and very suitable for beginners. It is designed to act as a standalone endpoint and repeater in a Particle Mesh network.
Xenon is pretty small, you can easily cover it with one hand. It adopts the Nordic nRF52840 processor that can provide excellent performance in complicated application. Meanwhile, Xenon is equipped with large-capacity Flash, RAM and peripherals, including native USB support, and also has built-in battery charging circuitry so it’s easy to connect a Li-Po. You can deploy your local network in minutes! The Xenon is best for connecting sensors, motors, pumps, valves and points of data-interest. Pair it with an Argon or Boron gateway to osmosis all that great data into the Device Cloud.
All Particle hardware is designed from the ground up to work with the Device Cloud. This is a powerful set of tools and infrastructure to build, connect, and manage your IoT fleet. The Particle Could has some great features for building connected projects, including over-the-air firmware updates, and easy-to-use REST API, and firmware development supported by web and local IDEs.
