Chipolo ONE Spot/Point uses Nordic nRF52833 SoC for Bluetooth LE location finding of items
Lost something important? Not with the Chipolo ONE Spot/Point
What is it?
Chipolo ONE Spot/Point is a lightweight, waterproof item finder designed to help users find their lost valuable items.
How does it help me?
- The loud sound (120dB) will help you to find your misplaced items quickly.
- Get distance hints in your app and pinpoint the location of your misplaced items.
- Check the location of your items on a map.
How does it work?
The solution works exclusively with the Apple Find My network, which consists of hundreds of millions of Apple devices worldwide. By attaching the Find My-enabled Chipolo ONE Spot to personal items such as keys or luggage and adding it to the Apple Find My app on their iPhones or iPads, users can locate lost or misplaced valuables through the private and secure Apple Find My network.
„We decided to use Nordic’s nRF52833 SoC for Chipolo ONE Spot mainly because of its size, price performance, and memory capacity in order to fit the solution’s firmware with all functionality needed to work with Apple Find My“
Janez Jevnikar, COO of Chipolo
The ONE Point solution helps you find your keys, backpack, luggage using Google's Find My Device network. Locate them on a map, call them when they are nearby, or use distance clues to pinpoint their exact location. It's durable, waterproof, and has a replaceable battery that lasts up to a year.
Providing wireless connectity
In addition to providing the Bluetooth LE connectivity, the Nordic nRF52833 SoC's 64MHz, 32-bit Arm® Cortex® M4 processor with floating point unit (FPU) and generous 512kB Flash and 128kB RAM memory allocation power the Chipolo ONE Spot/Point, ensuring it works seamlessly with the app. Chipolo ONE Spot/Point uses a CR2032 coin cell battery and achieves one year of battery life before replacement, thanks in part to the ultra-low power characteristics of the Nordic SoC.
Participate and Win!
Nordic Semiconductor is a global leader of ultra-low-power wireless technologies and a long term partner of Rutronik and is offering you the opportunity to win one of their development hardware. Participate in our advent calendar and explore the world of Power Management, Bluetooth Low Energy, Wi-Fi and Cellular IoT.
The nRF54L15 DK is the development kit for all three wireless SoC (System-on-Chip) options in the nRF54L Series. The nRF54L15 sits on the development board, while the nRF54L10 and nRF54L05 can be emulated. The affordable single-board development kit makes all features of the wireless SoC available to the developer.
The nPM1300 Evaluation Kit allows for simple evaluation and code-free configuration of the nPM1300 Power Management IC (PMIC). By connecting to the nPM PowerUP app found in nRF Connect for Desktop, all settings of the nPM1300 can easily be configured through an intuitive GUI and exported as code to be implemented in your MCUs application.
The nRF7002 DK is the development kit for the nRF7002, and nRF7001 Wi-Fi 6 Companion ICs. It contains everything needed to get started developing on a single board. The DK features an nRF5340 multiprotocol System-on-Chip (SoC) as a host processor for the nRF7002.
The Power Profiler Kit II (PPK2) is a standalone unit, which can measure and optionally supply currents all the way from sub-uA and as high as 1A on all Nordic DKs, in addition to external hardware.
The Nordic Thingy:53™ is an easy-to-use IoT prototyping platform. It makes it possible to create prototypes and proofs-of-concept without building custom hardware. The Thingy:53 is built around the nRF5340 SoC, our flagship dual-core wireless SoC. The processing power and memory size of its dual Arm Cortex-M33 processors enables it to run embedded machine learning (ML) models directly on the device.
The Nordic Thingy:91 X is a battery-operated prototyping platform for cellular IoT based on the nRF9151 System-in-Package (SiP) supporting LTE-M, NB-IoT, GNSS and NR+, and certified for global operation. It is the ideal platform for rapidly developing a prototype for any cellular IoT concept, and is especially suited for asset-tracking applications. Nordic Thingy:91 X enables location tracking using cellular (MCELL and SCELL), Wi-Fi, or GNSS, in combination with nRF Cloud Location Services.
The nRF9151 DK is an affordable, pre-certified single board development kit for evaluation and development on the nRF9151 System-in-Package (SiP) for LTE-M, NB-IoT, GNSS and DECT NR+. It has a dedicated LTE-M, NB-IoT and DECT NR+ antenna that supports a wide range of bands to operate globally.
On top of this you have the chance to win a finder from our customer Chipolo. This product is a lightweight, water-resistant item finder designed to help you find your missing valuable items.
