\"grovepi-zero\"<\/a><\/p>\n

US-based Dexter Industries has just launched a new Kickstarter<\/a> which aims to get you started using Grove sensors. The GrovePi-Zero<\/a> is, unsurprisingly, a Zero form-factor add-on board which gives you plug-in connections for six Grove modules – 3 analog, 1 serial and 2 digital. It comes with software and tutorials (both video and written) to help you. You can get the board by itself for $17 at the moment (early-bird) plus postage and there are other pledge levels which include various sensor modules.
