| 22 | +# VIDI X Microcomputer |
13 | 23 |
|
14 | | -It functions as both a multifunctional microcomputer and a development board. It can also be used as an efficient hub for a variety of different sensors. |
| 24 | +VIDI X microcomputer was developed by VIDI - a company devoted to the idea of making exceptional tools for STEAM education. VIDI X microcomputer is part of the [education solution for engaging computer science](https://vidi-x.org/discover-vidi-x/). |
15 | 25 |
|
16 | | -The device has an array of basic components like a built-in microphone, speaker, temperature sensor, IR diode, and light sensor. These components are all connected via a DIP switch to ESP32, enabling the user to select which sensors to connect. If a larger number of input/ output pins are required, users can release pins for sensors with a microswitch. This opens up a wealth of possibilities for connection to various input/ output units such as sensors and actuators. |
