Thinking About You - send messages between the Oplà and the Arduino IoT Cloud




For more advanced users, the kit provides the potential to create their own connected devices and IoT applications through the open programmable platform, providing ultimate control.

The Oplà unit acts as the physical interface with the Arduino IoT Cloud, providing you with total control at your fingertips via the Arduino IoT Remote app. Configure and manage all settings via the Arduino IoT Cloud, with easy-to-create dashboards providing real-time readings from your smart devices around the home or workplace. Adjusting settings, switching devices on/off, watering plants, etc., is all controllable on the go with the Arduino IoT Remote app, or you can fully automate the set-up and then sit back and enjoy!

With the Oplà IoT Kit, you can claim 12 free months* of the Arduino Cloud Maker Plan - the premium subscription to our online coding platform.
You will benefit from unlimited compilation time and all the other premium features.
