ESP8266 is a low cost RF module produced by the Chinese manufacturer Espressif Systems which includes a full TCP/IP stack and comes pre-programmed with an AT command set firmware, like old-fashioned modems: so, you can simply hook this module up to your Arduino (or hello board) and get WiFi-capabilities. However, the ESP8266 has on-board processing and storage capability (like an Arduino) that allows it to be programmed and extended. Moreover, it has a few GPIOs to which sensors and other interfaces can be attached to. | ESP8266 is a low cost RF module produced by the Chinese manufacturer Espressif Systems which includes a full TCP/IP stack and comes pre-programmed with an AT command set firmware, like old-fashioned modems: so, you can simply hook this module up to your Arduino (or hello board) and get WiFi-capabilities.
