Oh dear oh dear. So long Arduino
Qualcomm is acquiring Arduino, and they're launching a new SBC (Uno Q) combining a Dragonwing SoC with an Arduino microcontroller in the Uno form factor. What implications does this have for makers and education? Quick video covering the news: www.youtube.com/watch?v=CfKX...
