๐Ÿ”ง What if hardware worked like Unix?

Most gadgets are built from the same basic ingredients: a microcontroller, some sensors, and a control system. Yet creating new devices often requires custom integration and reinvention.

The Rapid Gadgeteering Interface (RGI) explores a different approachโ€”applying the Unix philosophy of modular, composable systems to physical computing. Imagine building gadgets from interoperable hardware components that can be connected, recombined, and repurposed as easily as software tools.

Join us for a discussion of how modular interfaces, physical composability, and reusable hardware building blocks could dramatically accelerate prototyping and gadget development.

๐Ÿ“… Thursday, June 18
