SparkFun Raspberry Pi 4 Desktop Kit - Without Raspberry Pi

Build a classroom programming station around a Raspberry Pi 4 you already own. This desktop accessory kit is intended to turn that board and an HDMI monitor into a usable workstation. Its robotics role is the development bench: edit programs, inspect logs and prepare experiments before transferring work to the robot. That is a different job from a motor controller or a complete mobile robot kit. The product explicitly excludes the Raspberry Pi, which should stay prominent in any purchasing decision.
Before you buy
