MicroView - kickstarter project

Yesterday I pledged for the MicroView on kickstarter. The campaign still runs until April 17th, so be quick if you still want to order one.

What is the MicroView?
It's a chip-sized Arduino with a built-in OLED display at a resolution of 64x48. Ideal for experiments on, say, a breadboard, since you can display measurement results on the screen right away (see the example below).

Gauges, like this gauge showing the reading of a Light Sensor are easy to display with 2 lines of Arduinoâ„¢ Code.

There are 6 analog inputs and 12 digital inputs available, 3 of which support PWM (Pulse-Width-Modulation).
It comes with its own library for driving the display, making it easy to show values on screen.

It looks like an ideal Arduino starter kit for use in ICT education.

As soon as it arrives we'll be back with a full review.
