The Primo is the latest Arduino board that offers a broad spectrum of wireless capabilities, including WiFi, BLE, NFC, and IR, with all but WiFi implemented by the Nordic Semiconductor nRF52832 SoC which is a multi-protocol radio device with a 64MHz ARM Cortex-M4F processor with floating point DSP extension.  A second MCU-controlled wireless SoC, the Espressif ESP8266, is responsible for the board’s WiFi connectivity.

The Arduino Primo can act as a fully-functional TCP / IP Internet client and server over Wi-Fi making it an ideal choice as an internet of things (IoT) development platform for professional developers and makers.
