BCB-1

More possibility.
Less breadboard clutter.

BCB-1 is an RP2040 breadboard controller prototype built around one U-shaped PCB. The design brings a low-profile OLED, programmable I/O, and expansion connections directly to the breadboard.

RCS-1

Teach the mark.
Read the difference.

RCS-1 is a compact infrared contrast sensor prototype with two-point teaching, saved calibration, and adjustable thresholds over I²C. Rev C pairs a 24 × 26 mm board with a locking JST-GH connector and a printable enclosure.

MIB-1

Industrial signals.
A platform to build on.

MIB-1 is an M12 industrial I/O bridge prototype for 24 V sensors, with six inputs and interchangeable Arduino Uno R3 or Raspberry Pi 4B docks. Four PNP/NPN digital inputs and two 0–10 V / 4–20 mA channels bring sensor data into one platform.

Reference interfaces: I²C, low-speed SPI, and RS485 / Modbus RTU. Ethernet adapter integration uses a Hilscher NIC52-RE and requires vendor firmware and validation.

Rev A engineering prototype · Physical testing pending. Bare board with interchangeable docks; no enclosure.
