The eMBee ONE is an easy-to-build pocket computer using off-the-shelf parts. No custom PCBs required. It currently consists of:
- CPU: Arduino Nano v3 (clone) microcontroller board
- Display: 1.54 inch OLED screen running at 128x64 pixels (SPI)
- Keyboard: CardKB credit card sized QWERTY keyboard (I2C)
- Storage: 24LC256 external EEPROM (giving 32KB storage for BASIC programs via I2C)
- Audio: Piezo buzzer - for simple bleeps and bloops
- Power: Adafruit PowerBoost 500 Basic connected to 2xAAA batteries for power
- Case: Altoids tin - everything fits in here!
- Software: Running eMBee BASIC (not based on TinyBasic) modified from the brilliant Arduino BASIC by Robin Edwards
I'm absolutely thrilled that the eMBee ONE has been added to hackaday.io's 'Featured Projects' list! And I'm pleased to say it now has over 1000 views. Added pressure now to finish this!
