Unihiker SBC from DFRobot

rsc
rsc over 1 year ago

I received a new Unihiker board a few weeks ago, and I just started playing with it this week.

It's kinda interesting with a mix of features including a display with touch screen and a nice set of GPIO pins with both connectors and microbit style edge connector.

The Unihiker comes with an OS already installed, and you can start programming right away with a browser based Python package using Jupyter Notebook.

I'm surprised at how easy it was to start working on a project and get it running in just a few minutes.

DFRobot is running a contest also right now, so if you have a project idea you should sign up.

    A nice product but you have to be very careful because they have a 4 pin port that accepts a Grove or Stemma connector except that the pin definitions are different.  The power and ground pins are reversed so you could accidentally damage your Grove sensors.  And the cables are not color coded (all white wires).  Maybe not a big issue for others but I use a lot of Grove and QWIIC sensors and controllers.

    Yes, I agree the all white wires were not the best idea.
