Cytron looks like an interesting board but I will admit I've always wanted to try out a Jetson nano

The Jetson Nano's main USP is the processing cores that form its CUDA capability, ideal for things like AI or anywhere lots of data needs to be processed in parallel. As a Pi replacement it wouldn't be…

Cool boards - the cytron maker would be fun, wish it wouldve dropped a couple sensors onboard like a compass chip or gyros.

The above is the schematic for the board showing just how each of the six Grove connectors are connected.
