Got contacted by these guys a few days ago and have only just got round to having a look at the Kickstarter.
Now, obviously this isn’t strictly Pi-related, but I thought it was such a cool board that it was worth giving them a little bit of exposure on my blog.
SODAQ is a multi-feature microprocessor board that lets you connect sensors and devices to the internet, quickly and with no fuss. It’s designed for connecting things efficiently, running off-grid with built-in, ready-to-go solar power.
The board has built in sockets for Grove modules; a realtime clock; extended flash memory; USB on-board; and the Bee socket can take any WiFi/RF/XBee or other compatible plugin for communications instead of our GPRS module.
Their Kickstarter has some very attractive reward levels, including an £80 pledge for the full board, battery, solar charging panels and GPRS module.
We have now paired the SODAQ with the Pi and have it all running on Solar power. Please check:
