• The Experiential Robotics Platform (XRP) has moved out of beta and is fully released. It's a hands-on, comprehensive robotics platform with four pillars: hardware kit (tool-free construction), programming environment (multi-language), online modules/projects, and a technical forum.
• The plastics and chassis have been enhanced, making assembly easier and the platform more robust. There are different versions available, including a set of 10 option, a DIY version without a chassis (also in sets of 10 and 30), and an XRP Chassis.
• The SparkFun XRP Controller has been improved with a Raspberry Pi® RP2350B dual-core processor, various sensors and connectors, and wireless connectivity.
• There is also the SparkFun Pico Add-On Flipper for XRP to solve the orientation limitation of HATs.
• SparkFun is now the sole manufacturer and sales channel partner for PJRC's Teensy® line, and there is a dedicated ecosystem page for it.
• The company encourages users to share their creations on social media and stay safe.
