GadgetBox 2.0 Redesign - Enabling Universal eCog Modules

A project log for GadgetBox - No More Shield Stacking or Ugly Wires!

Build your IOT projects with Universal eCog modules that simply snap into low cost enclosures.

With the first GadgetBox design I realized that I painted myself into a corner by putting the headers in the middle of the board. Doing so limits the different IOT modules that we can put into the GadgetBox.

One of the goals with GadgetBox is to make eCogs a Universal plugin that can be used no matter what IOT platform you are using. Whether that be Arduino, Teensy, Raspberry Pi, ESP8266 and so on. If you have a SD Card eCog there is no reason you shouldn't be able to use it with any of the above mentioned modules.

By redesigning the GadgetBox to make more room for larger modules such as the Rasberry Pi Zero we are that much closer to Universal eCog Modules all housed in an attractive enclosure.

Keep tuned for more information as the GadgetBox development continues.
