Experiment with Embedded Hardware Using .NET and C#
The GHI Experimenter Kit provides a hands-on introduction to embedded development using .NET and C#. Through a series of guided experiments, developers can quickly explore hardware interaction, sensors, displays, and connectivity.
The kit is designed for both newcomers to embedded systems and experienced engineers exploring modern embedded development.
What is SITCore?
SITCore product family brings .NET and C# to circuits, IoT and embedded systems.
The product family includes a variety of chipsets, modules, and single board computers.
No Experience Necessary!
The Experimenter Kit allows engineers to quickly explore the capabilities of the SITCore platform and TinyCLR OS without designing hardware. Within minutes, developers can run code that interacts with real sensors, displays, and peripherals.
The included experiments walk developers through real embedded scenarios such as:
- Reading sensors
- Controlling LEDs and motors
- Interacting with displays
- Communicating with peripherals
- Building connected devices
Each experiment builds on the previous one, gradually introducing more advanced concepts.
The SITCore FEZ Bit is the “brain” of built projects. Deploy and debug from Microsoft Visual Studio simply using the included USB cable.
The included BrainClip accessory pack includes multiple circuit modules that connect to the FEZ Bit using the included alligator clip wires. The variety of circuit modules help demonstrate the use of multiple technologies, such a GPIO, ADC, PMW, signal decoders and more.
With minimal assembly, BrainBot robot offers on-board sensors and motor control.
The Experimenter Kit is ideal for:
- .NET developers exploring embedded systems
- Engineers evaluating SITCore hardware
- Students learning hardware programming
- Hobbyists interested in modern embedded development
Companion eBook
The kit includes a detailed eBook that guides developers through each experiment step-by-step, explaining both the hardware concepts and the C# code used to control the system.
This structured approach makes it easy to learn embedded development while building real working projects.
