37. our challenge

38. Questions
is Arduino compatibility essential?
how hard would it be to do programming in C to
get access to a more powerful processor

39. Questions
Does anyone in the room have experience in
getting new boards onot the Arduino platform
(especially the IDE)?
anyone in the room have experience in C
programming for Arduino?
Would you be willing to help us?
