Thingy external connection

In order to connect an external sensor to the available pins, will we need to create our own version of the FW in order to communicate with the sensor? Or are there generic methods to communicate?

  • As there is basically infinite number of possible interfaces (on both HW and SW level) it's almost impossible to develop magic plug which will be able to communicate with any sensor. So yes, you will need to develop your own FW to work with such sensor.

  • Well it sounds like nice idea, but can you throw example of any such platform which offers this attachment of external components without need to change the FW (I mean really offers attaching some reasonable range of I2C and SPI sensors not only 2 examples tested by the vendor)?
