What is Hydra?
Hydra is an ARM Cortex-M3 based development board powered by LPC1768 microcontroller. It comes with Prime Framework (a suite of software libraries) and is suitable for beginners, hobbyists as well as advance embedded developers.
Hydra’s modular design makes it fit for any educational embedded and robotics applications. It can be used in projects that require high computing power and need to acquire sensor data quickly & accurately such as drones, wheeled robots, x-y plotters, 3D printers. Students can use Hydra to learn the ARM processor in an affordable and simple way.
Why choose Hydra?
