Hi,
I would like using the Arduino Fio as a wearable device (for reading/connecting to sensors) that needs to communicate with a smartphone and/or PC/Mac. I’m considering Wifi or Bluetooth as the communication protocol (ZigBee would be not possible - to my knowledge - with a smartphone).
My questions:
- which modules are compatible with the Arduino Fio (out-of-the-box is without board hardware-modifications e.g. soldering wires, …)
Xbee- Wifi

XBee WiFi Module - PCB Antenna - https://www.sparkfun.com/products/12568 … d94e8b4567
-
RN-XV WiFly Module - Wire Antenna - https://www.sparkfun.com/products/10822
Xbee- Bluetooth
Other (Xbee-WiFi or Xbee-Bluetooth modules)??
- To program/communicate with WiFi/WiFly or Bluetooth modules on the Arduino Fio is it the “SoftwareSerial” library that should be used?
Many thanks.
