Description

Key Features:

✔ Dual-Mode Support:

• Bluetooth (HC-05/HC-06 compatible) – For short-range wireless control (up to 10m).

• XBee Socket – Supports ZigBee, DigiMesh, or 802.15.4 protocols (long-range, mesh networking).
  ✔ Arduino Compatibility:

• Works with Uno, Mega, Leonardo, and other 5V/3.3V boards.

• Stackable design – Fits directly on Arduino headers.
  ✔ Onboard Components:

• Voltage Regulator – Supports 3.3V/5V logic (auto-switching).

• UART Selection Jumpers – Switch between SoftwareSerial and HardwareSerial.

• Reset Button – For easy module reconfiguration.
  ✔ Wireless Range:

• Bluetooth: ~10m (Class 2).

• XBee (ZigBee): Up to 100m+ (line-of-sight).
  ✔ Easy Configuration:

• AT commands for Bluetooth baud rate, name, and pairing.

• XBee API Mode for advanced mesh networking.

Applications:

• Wireless Sensor Networks – Remote data logging (temperature, humidity).

• Robot Control – Bluetooth/WiFi-based RC robots/drones.

• Home Automation – Smart lights, door locks, or HVAC control.

• Industrial IoT – Machine monitoring with XBee mesh networks.

How to Use:

1. Insert Module: Plug an HC-05 Bluetooth or XBee module into the socket.

2. Set Jumpers: Configure UART mode (HardwareSerial for Uno/Mega).

3. Upload Code: Use Serial.read()/Serial.write() for wireless communication.

Package Includes:

• 1× Bluetooth XBee Shield V03

Why Choose This Shield?

✅ All-in-One Wireless – Switch between Bluetooth and XBee without rewiring.
✅ Plug-and-Play – No complex soldering (fully stackable).
✅ Cost-Effective – Cheaper than buying separate Bluetooth/XBee shields.
