I've been thinking about making R-Kade Zero more usable, more expandable. So I'm planning on adding a small expansion interface.
This expansion interface will have a SPI and I2C interfaces on a set of female pin headers located on the bottom PCB side and near the top edge of the PCB.
The SPI interface will allow us to add a LCD panel so R-Kade Zero becomes a hand held portable platform. Either a 2.2" or 2.4" LCD panel should do.
The I2C interface will allow us to use a touch screen controller if the LCD panel has one.
Both interfaces should allow us to use accelerometers sensors and such like, opening up some really interesting possibilities.

Thanks Craig

This would be a cracking addition - can't wait to see how it turns out!
With i2c you can add all sorts to it. I look forward to seeing what you come up with :-)
