Training and Connecting Opportunities
"The two largest platforms for hardware at this point are Arduino and Raspberry Pi, with a long tail of other hardware for specialized uses available. If you understand these two, there really is very little limit to the sorts of things you can build." -Jason Griffey, The Case for Open Hardware in Libraries
