Introduction

Infineon have produced leading Motor ControlMotor Control & Lighting ControlLighting Control shields for Arduino: perhaps you've seen them in action during the Internet of Holiday Lights RoadTest Plus, or currently in our Enchanted Objects Design Challenge. Now here's a chance to get a bundle of these shields (with an Arduino YúnArduino Yún) in a RoadTest.

Each pack contains:

Infineon Lighting RGB LED Arduino Shield

Infineon Motor Control Arduino Shield

Arduino Yún

Watch that Yún too, it's very tall and you need long headers to clear it.

I've modded mine to make it easier to stack it, by using a coaxial cap and stacking headers:

If you look at the boards, its not exactly easy to stack both ...especially with the capacitor.

There are only about 4 connections required, so not having the header does give some flexibility.
It's a ot easier to solder headers on, than it is to take them off (even with all the right tools).

Including them in with the boards would be nice though.

It's disappointing that neither of the two Infineon boards come with the headers to stack them on top of the arduino board.

Many thanks to all who applied. The response to this RoadTest has been exceptional in terms of high quality proposals that have been submitted, as a result, we're doubling the number of testers from 5 to 10. Nevertheless, it was difficult to select only this number; however, we've picked:
Michel Fortin
Madhu Govindarajan
Dan Hunter
Daniel Kline
Mark Malo
Bob Monroe
David Pettit
Anshul Thakur
Dimitrios Tsartsanis
Satyavrat Wagle
Thanks again to all who applied; I encourage those who were unsuccessful this time to apply for our other exciting RoadTests now open or opening in the near future.

True. I've used and reviewed the 3 for other roadtests, and they are good.

I was trying to find more details of the products and noticed that the links for "Arduino Yun" and "Lighting Control Shield" got swapped in the roadtest description

Edit: Now it has been fixed by element14support
