Embedded development is fast & easy (FEZ) thanks to .NET Micro Framework, .NET Gadgeteer and the numerous GHI value added features such as WiFi and USB Host.

 

The kit includes:

 

FEZ Spider Mainboard

Display T35 Module (3.5" with touchscreen)

USB Client DP Module (with USB cable)

Camera Module

2x Multicolor LED Module (DaisyLink)

2x Button Module

Ethernet J11D Module

SD Card Module

USB Host Module

Extender Module

Joystick Module

10cm IDC cables (included with modules).

Assorted IDC Cable Pack:

4x 5cm IDC cables

3x 20cm IDC cables

1x 50cm IDC cable

Reusable Plastic Storage Box

 

FEZ Spider Mainboard is a .NET Gadgeteer-compatible mainboard based on GHI Electronics' EMX module. This makes FEZ Spider Mainboard the most feature-full .NET Gadgeteer compatible device in the market.
