While focusing on our RoIP (Robots over IP) technologies we developed a series of hardware/software platforms that were intended as building blocks for simple network-connected consumer electronics. The OptoGroover is the board-level reference design that we provided to partners, which enabled devices to connect to a PC and therefore to the internet.

As such the OptoGroover - along with its accompanying firmware and software frameworks - is capable of pulling streams of data from the network and displaying them in millions of colors and patterns. Data streams could also be pushed to the device from the network. Finally, the accompanying software was capable of loading additional software "modules" on the fly thereby adding additional functionalities and features to the device in s simple one-click install fashion (a la App Store).
