Raspberry Pi Arduino Shield Add-on

This Arduino Shield Add-on extends your Raspberry Pi's GPIO connector to Arduino-compatible pin layouts, allowing you to use standard Arduino shields with your Pi. It's a practical way to leverage the extensive Arduino shield ecosystem while taking advantage of the Raspberry Pi's processing power and connectivity.

The board also includes two groups of electronic brick interfaces for connecting sensors and modules, plus an SDK is available to help port Arduino drivers for use on the Raspberry Pi.

Key Features
