As one of Amazon Sidewalk's only three qualified hardware partners for developing Amazon Sidewalk devices, our Pro Kit provides all the necessary tools for developing high-volume, scalable IoT applications. It is also designed to support the development of wireless IoT-based devices on Bluetooth and sub-GHz wireless protocols for Amazon Sidewalk. The Pro Kit for Amazon Sidewalk was also recently awarded Embedded Computing Design's Best in Show Award at the Embedded World Conference in Nuremberg, Germany, in March.
