Another modular microcontroller platform: http://www.engadget.com/2011/12/09/step-aside-arduino-tinkerforge-is-the-new-sheriff-in-mod-town/
The modules are 4 x 4 cm and referred to as bricks, with the usual complement of controller and peripheral bricks. (With some bias towards functionality you'd need for robotics.) Uses "rules-based programming" that's claimed to be easier than Arduino programming, or optionally you can use C, C++, C#, Java, or Python. -Tom _______________________________________________ Hardwarehacking mailing list Hardwarehacking@blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/hardwarehacking
