Very cool. I think we’re so used to a shortage of ports nowadays that “plug and play” seems like magic. Thank you for bringing it back better than ever in a compact user friendly form. I could plug a keyboard, mouse, display, camera, and gps antenna into my laptop with a big enough USB hub, but it won’t be as beautiful as this solution.

#32This is art. I mean that as a compliment. It's beautifully executed and, as a finished consumer product, completely useless. Hell of a thing to have in your portfolio when you're looking for jobs, though!
Why is it useless?

#33Big fan of this! Have you explored using this platform as a sort of USB C port hub for a full desktop environment? Being able to effectively create your own docking station would solve a ton of problems in the current market.

#34I actually can think of uses for this. One, it would be great as an around-the-house automation UI. Like a universal remote on steroids.
Two, I can see kits of these (piles of mobos and peripherals) being super handy for hackathons, robotics clubs, field work, etc. Especially if you had something like the Automation Hat - an interface to some high power transistors and relays.
