 This system is built to be highly extensible. For this purpose, I designed a wireless system for indoor use based on Bluetooth LE. This decision was primarily driven by two factors: firstly, my desire to gain experience with BLE in a new project, and secondly (and more importantly), the aim to ensure independence from any specific MCU. This system is built to be highly extensible.

-Currently, I'm using an ESP32, which supports both Wi-Fi and BLE. However, I also plan to test other microcontrollers, such as those from the STM32 family (for instance, the [[https://www.st.com/en/microcontrollers-microprocessors/stm32wb-series.html|STM32WB-Series]], which offers strong BLE capabilities), to maintain this flexibility.+Currently, I'm using an [[hardware:esp32:start|ESP32]], which supports both Wi-Fi and BLE.
