Guess what this is and it is yours for free. First correct answer only!

what about now?

A reimagened Micro Bit?

If you rotate it 90 degrees clockwise, you have a miniature Tetris game…

Wrong answer

SitCore host for DueLink projects, with prototyping area?

Wrong answer again. Here is a hint: This board covers 2 form factors.

Raspberry Pi HAT or DUELink “replacement” for a Raspberry Pi (zero or Model A/B form factor).

No one tells you when studying electronics that the older you get and your eyesight isn’t as good that the parts get smaller :slight_smile:.

Ding ding ding… We have a winner. It is a RPI HAT, for full size and zero

And works on beagly-ai

Wow… time to dust off my 13y/o account and get excited again.

I spent my yesterday trying to revive the old FEZ Spider Gadgeteer board (no luck so far) after blowing my 7 y/o daughter’s mind by showing her you can make computers do cool things by programming them. This would have been a perfect time to dust off the old Gadgeteer box set, alas…

On a whim I decided to see if I can find some way to reuse the pile of old modules with some more modern hardware. And here we are… Oh boy!

Looking forward to what you guys come up with next.

DUELink is much easier and uses smaller connectors. But I think it would be awesome if the team can show us examples on how we can bridge old with new.
