- Cost & Availability: The nRF52 devkit is available from multiple vendors, and

- Integrated Bluetooth: The devkit comes with built-in Bluetooth, which is used

for connecting via a server control application.

- Zephyr: The devkit is intended to be used with Zephyr (what this project is

- Arduino Shield Compatible: The devkit has the same pin-out as an Arduino, so

the project can be extended to support a variety of shield peripherals.

### Hardware Support
|
||||
|
||||
The following hardware is targeted for a first pass at support:
|
||||
|
||||
- [nRF52840 Dev Kit](https://www.nordicsemi.com/Products/Development-hardware/nRF52840-DK)
|
||||
- [DFRobot 2x7A DC Motor Driver](https://www.dfrobot.com/product-1534.html)
|
||||
- For controlling the standard higher powered FTC legal DC motors
|
||||
- [Adafruit Motor/Stepper/Servo Shield for Arduino v2](https://www.adafruit.com/product/1438)
|
||||
- Good for powering multiple small DC motors or stepper motors
|
||||
- [Adafruit 16-Channel 12-bit PWM/Servo Shield](https://www.adafruit.com/product/1411)
|
||||
- Allows for controlling several servos while freeing up the main controllers PWM pins
|
||||
- [Gravity: 10 DOF IMU](https://www.dfrobot.com/product-1793.html)
|
||||
- Intertial measurement unit to stand in place of the built-in IMU on the REV control hub
|
||||
