This 900 MHz radio version can be used for either 868 MHz or 915 MHz transmission/reception – the exact radio frequency is determined when you load the software since it can be tuned around dynamically.
At the Feather 32u4's heart is at ATmega32u4 clocked at 8 MHz and at 3.3 V logic. This chip has 32 K of flash and 2 K of RAM, with built in USB so not only does it have a USB-to-Serial program & debug capability built in with no need for an FTDI-like chip, it can also act like a mouse, keyboard, USB MIDI device, etc.
To make it easy to use for portable projects, we added a connector for any 3.7 V Lithium polymer batteries and built in battery charging. You don't need a battery, it will run just fine straight from the micro USB connector. But, if you do have a battery, you can take it on the go, then plug in the USB to recharge. The Feather will automatically switch over to USB power when its available. We also tied the battery thru a divider to an analog pin, so you can measure and monitor the battery voltage to detect when you need a recharge.

The Feather 32u4 Radio uses the extra space left over to add an RFM69HCW 868/915 MHz radio module. These radios are not good for transmitting audio or video, but they do work quite well for small data packet transmission when you ned more range than 2.4 GHz (BT, BLE, WiFi, ZigBee)
SX1231 based module with SPI interface
Packet radio with ready-to-go Arduino libraries
Uses the license-free ISM band ('European ISM' @ 868 MHz or 'American ISM' @ 915 MHz)

A low-power, open source, 2.7-inch IoT display powered by an ESP32-S2 module and featuring SHARP's Memory-in-Pixel (MiP) screen technology
The Newt is a battery-powered, always-on, wall-mountable display that can go online to retrieve weather, calendars, sports scores, to-do lists, quotes…really anything on the Internet! It is powered by an ESP32-S2 microcontroller that you can program with Arduino, CircuitPython, MicroPython, or ESP-IDF. It's perfect for makers:
Sharp’s Memory-in-Pixel (MiP) technology avoids the slow refresh times associated with E-Ink displays
A real-time clock (RTC) was added to support timers and alarms
The Newt was designed with battery operation in mind; every component on the board was chosen for its ability to operate at low power.
Newt was designed to operate 'untethered,' which means it can be mounted in places where a power cord would be inconvenient, for example a wall, refrigerator, mirror, or dry-erase board. With the optional stand, desks, shelves, and nightstands are also good options.
Newt is open source, and all design files and libraries are available for review, use, and modification. However, doing that is not required. Each Newt is delivered with working code with the following features:
Current weather details
Hourly and daily weather forecast
Alarm
Timer
Inspirational quotes
Air-quality forecast
Habit calendar
Pomodoro timer
Oblique Strategy cards
Only following the Wi-Fi provisioning instructions is needed to get started. No app downloads are required.

This expansion board allows you to add an RS485 and a CAN interface to a Raspberry Pi Pico.
The board also offers the option of operating it either via a standard USB-C connection with 5 V or via a screw terminal that accepts a voltage of 6 to 12 V. The voltage applied to the screw terminal is reduced to 5 V by a voltage converter integrated on the board.
Features
Power can be supplied via a USB-C connection with 5 V or via a screw terminal that draws between 6 and 12 V. In the latter case, a built-in voltage converter reduces the voltage to 5 V.
To increase the versatility and range of functions, the connection pins of the Raspberry Pi Pico have been routed to the outside.
The expansion board also offers the option of communication via the RS485 and CAN interfaces.

This air monitor is specifically used for monitoring greenhouses. It detects:
Air temperature & Humidity
CO2 concentration
Light intensity
Then transmit the data via LoRa P2P to the LoRa receiver (on your desk in the room) so that the user can monitor the field status or have it recorded for long-term analysis.
This module monitors the greenhouse field status and sends all sensor data regularly via LoRa P2P in Jason format. This LoRa signal can be received by the Makerfabs LoRa receiver and thus displayed/recorded/analyzed on the PC. The monitoring name/data cycle can be set with a phone, so it can be easily implemented into the file.
This air monitor is powered by an internal LiPo battery charged by a solar panel and can be used for at least 1 year with the default setting (cycle 1 hour).

Raspberry Pi 5 provides two four-lane MIPI connectors, each of which can support either a camera or a display. These connectors use the same 22-way, 0.5 mm-pitch “mini” FPC format as the Compute Module Development Kit, and require adapter cables to connect to the 15-way, 1 mm-pitch “standard” format connectors on current Raspbery Pi camera and display products.These mini-to-standard adapter cables for cameras and displays (note that a camera cable should not be used with a display, and vice versa) are available in 200 mm, 300 mm and 500 mm lengths.
