About ThingPulse
ThingPulse Ltd. is a Swiss hardware company based in Zurich that develops and sells electronics kits, connected products and ESP32 hardware. The portfolio includes the ESP32 WiFi Color Display Kit Grande, the 16×16 RGB word clock Icon256 and the ESPGateway Ethernet, an ESP32 gateway platform with RJ45 Ethernet for embedded and building automation applications. In addition to its own product business, the company offers services: IoT consulting (architecture and connectivity), embedded software and firmware development (C/C++, Arduino, ESP32, Python, Java, APIs), electronics development from schematic through PCB layout to prototyping, and manufacturing support via an established production and assembly network in Asia – also for small quantities. ThingPulse also handles testing, warehousing and shipping. The company's roots lie in the open-source community: founder Daniel Eichhorn published ESP8266/ESP32 projects under the name Squix starting in 2015. ThingPulse Ltd. was founded in Zurich on 8 January 2018; products are shipped internationally.
