## AI overview

A roundup of Espressif-related IoT news and projects. It reports that the ESP32-Azure IoT Kit received Microsoft certification for the IoT Plug and Play program, and describes Norvi's industrial IoT controller, the ESP32-based obniz platform, particulate-pollution measurement, and ECG monitoring.

## Source excerpt

Hi everyone, The ESP32-Azure IoT Kit has been granted a Microsoft certification which makes it integral to Microsoft's Plug-and-Play program. This has been designed to bring the ease of "Plug and Play" to IoT devices. So, developers can plug virtually any peripheral into a Windows PC without having to worry about drivers.
