Thanks to Roland, a teacher who I met while giving a talk on OLPC, I came into possesion of a Scratch Board - now named [http://www.picocricket.com/picoboard.html Pico Board].  It's a small serial based breakout board, with a bunch of sensor inputs.  I've hacked together some python to read this data out and display it.  This has evolved into an activity for the XO.

I would like to see this become integrated with [[User:Arjs | Arjun]]'s sensor work in Measure and Turtle Art.  Perhaps next would be turning the python into a library suitable for using the sensor data in these programs, and/or Pippy.
