This looks pretty cool, especially if you do a lot of hardware stuff.

Until someone besides him has their hands on a working unit this is 100% a scam. Shit like this has been "invented" dozens of times since the advent of crowd funding and not a single one has ever actually accomplished anything other than running away with other people's money

Fair point. The part that stood out the most as "wow that's exactly how you'd do it" is the automatic configuration based on apps and what they do, and which ones you've used most in that combination. That was almost too perfect.

The guy talking in the video also sounds like a total scamming tech bro faggot.

Interesting framework.

It seems like it'd be great if you're making hardware things and need a flexible setup for controlling it. Add the right dials, buttons, lights and write some code to communicate with your hardware.

All true. But at what cost? All this engineering will be expensive. I'd rather go on ebay, buy a $5 ESP32 a few $2 peripherals and wire them up. Sure, it takes longer but it's fun.

I meant for prototyping and as a development tool. Definitely not using one of these to build an end device out of.

How cool. I would buy one of these. Wonder when they will hit the market or if they ever will?

By the time you get all those clunky, ugly modules stuck onto it, it's not so little anymore.

And I guess you can't stick a compass (magnetic) sensor on, since the strong magnets would interfere.

This guy must have played with a lot of LEGOs

Uses a Raspberry pi board that has been around for many years. Just fancy case and gadgets on top of it. I have several raspberry pi's. i use them for various projects. Pi-hole, Arcade emulation, robotics, media player.

So it's basically a shield that goes on top.
