Types of obnizOS
- obnizOS for ESP32
By writing obnizOS for ESP32 and a device key to the ESP32-WROOM32 or WROVER, IO operation and other functions can be performed via the cloud.
- Device-specific OS
A special obnizOS is available for devices with displays and switches.
Devices with a display allow you to check your connection status from the start, and you can set up Wi-Fi, among other features.
obnizOS for obnizboard
obnizOS for obnizboard1y
obnizOS for encored
obnizOS for M5StickC
obnizOS for M5Stack Basic
obnizOS is distributed free of charge and can be installed freely.
You need to pay for the monthly cloud usage fee based on the number of units, but you can use it for free up to a certain number of devices. Udo is also available free of charge. For more information, please refer to the Pricing.

Extend the OS with plug-ins
You can add programs to extend obnizOS by adding them to the obnizOS running on the device. You can create your own programs to enhance the device's functionality, such as offline handling and fast IO control, which was not possible with existing obniz. You will be able to customize it for a variety of applications.
You can use Plug-in over-the-air (OTA) via the obniz cloud or USB.
[Examples of enhancements]
- Specify device behavior when offline
- Using parts that are not compatible with obnizjs
- Fast and stable operation with low latency
- Filter only necessary information to reduce traffic
Develop a plug-in
The Arduino IDE allows you to develop your own plug-ins at your disposal. Using Arduino libraries to enhance obniz's capabilities. You can use the plug-in on your device or publish it to the store.
Using plug-ins
More convenient and easier to use with plug-ins. You can extend the functionality of obniz by adding necessary functions with plug-ins. (Plug-in store to be released soon.)
