Design
Our hardware framework allows to connect up to 8 analog control inputs (pots, lightsensors etc.), 8 digital control inputs (switches) and 8 LEDs. The current design uses a HAT (Hardware Attached on Top) audio interface, but any USB soundcard running with the Raspberry Pi is also possible to use. See Build COSMO for more details on the hardware design
