The Arduino Nesso N1 is a compact IoT development kit built around the ESP32-C6, designed for connected projects in smart home, industrial, and educational settings. Developed with M5Stack, it supports Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3 LE, 802.15.4 (Thread/Zigbee), and LoRa, making it suitable for multiprotocol communication across local and remote environments.

It includes a 1.14 colour touch display, programmable buttons, a built-in IMU, IR transmitter, RGB LED, buzzer, and a rechargeable 250mAh lithium battery, giving you a self-contained and interactive platform for development and testing. Expansion is handled through Grove and Qwiic connectors, with compatibility for Arduino Modulino nodes, third-party modules, and the wider M5Stack 8-pin HAT ecosystem. Integration with Arduino Cloud allows for remote monitoring and data visualisation.

Support for Arduino IDE, MicroPython, and UIFlow provides flexibility in how you develop and deploy projects, letting you focus on building and iterating rather than initial configuration.

Specifications

Note on Connectors: The Qwiic, and 8-pin expansion port connectors operate at 3.3 V. Connecting modules or devices that use higher logic levels, such as 5 V, may permanently damage the board.

Note on GPIO Current: Be mindful of the current limits for the GPIO pins. Exceeding the specifications in the ESP32-C6 datasheet may damage the pin or the board.
