History of the Dev Kit

 

Development Kits have shaped the technology-led world we know today. Originally a basis for prototyping products and applications, development kits are now being used to produce some of the world’s most innovative new technologies, from wearables and smart devices, to medical testing systems and the Internet of Things.

 

To mark the incredible impact of Development Kits, we have charted their evolution in this History of the Dev Kit slideshare. It follows early adoption by the engineering community in the 1970s, right through to the modern day of low cost, open source development platforms.

    Cheers

     

     

    It looks like you have a quite a bit of very interesting material there.

    Maybe if the member was logged in, you could pass it across.

    Or

    a generic login that only works for element14 material and is read only.
