This Seeed Studio MCU development board is a feature-rich platform based on ARM CORTEX A8 microcontroller. Initially, it was designed as an evaluation and development platform for researchers and hobbyists. It is based on the open-source hardware design of BeagleBone Black and developed into this differentiated version. It includes 2 Grove connectors, making it easier to connect to the large family of Grove sensors. The on-board HDMI is dropped out to make room for the Grove connectors. It is an open-source design that can be used to create new prototypes.
