Hi Ken,

I agree that a workshop would be good. The possibilities are endless and your idea looks good.

The other thought is that there are so many platforms to choose from (you mention 2 and I have 4 more on my desk now). People might be interested in an overview to help them decide which to try first. (I'm adding Simblee to my list.)

A further issue is how to build gateways, whether phone or computer-based to provide UI and data transmission.
See my point that I'm not sure what we ought to do in short sessions.

Andrew, Paul,

I have a self-made board with a RFduino SMT module on board - which ought to be up and running by then. It's an MSP430i2041 based design - which has 4 x 24bit individual ADCs -intended for 3 phase energy monitoring

The Simblee also looks interesting - both are Nordic Semiconductor nRF51822 based (as is BBC Microbit).

Might be neat to tie a few of these platforms together during a workshop.

Would be great to have a talk on BLE and maybe a look at it in closer
detail and at a few different platforms?

Best,

Andrew
