Demo Features

Hardware

Main Boards

USB powered hub

For boards without the necessary built-in peripherals (input, connectivity, etc.), a powered hub is necessary to connect USB peripherals for AGL demos. We are using a commercial available 7-port powered USB 2.0 hub:

Wifi Connectivity

For boards without built in Wifi we are using a commercially available Wifi USB dongle

Bluetooth Connectivity

For boards without Bluetooth built-in we are using a commercially available USB dongle
