Meet the next generation of small experimental computers...

The Oxocard Connect easily helps you get into different areas of electronics and try out new things quickly thanks to it‘s universal cartridge slot, which allows for different expansion cartridges (coming soon) be brought to life by simply plugging them in. Use cartridges to immediately experiment with light and audio, or sensor applications, such as measuring distance and testing your air quality, or making strange and beautiful music with a pocket sized synth! Gone are the days when you had to buy a breakout board and then find out how to connect the cards to the controller.

No more searching for install drivers or sample code, that‘s all a thing of the past!

All the necessary software is installed automatically and the easy to follow documentation is included. As soon as a cartridge is inserted, the Oxocard CONNECT recognizes the card, loads the drivers and automatically starts a demo program. Nothing needs to be installed or configured! The new 16-pin connector
can also be plugged in on both sides. Errors when plugging in are all but impossible!

Browse through the extensive software libraries featuring a user friendly interface, all at the touch of your fingertips!

Each Oxocard gives you access to NanoPy.io, one of the most powerful and simple online development environments currently available on the market. This has a similar structure to the frequently used Python programming language and is easy to learn and program. The main difference is that NanoPy is optimized for microcontrollers. It therefore offers a high execution speed and guarantees a high level of stability during operation.
