This carrier board lets you use Intel Edison for controlling Rapiro. GPIO input voltage level is converted from Edison's 1.8 V to 3.3 V.

Since Edison is WiFi and Bluetooth enabled, you can control Rapiro using WiFi.

This board has a universal area and pads for I2C, SPI, I2S, Micro-SD slot, Micro USB (TypeB) x 2, Standard USB (TypeA).

The pin header is soldered on to prevent blocking of 5V power supply line after plugging in the connector for Rapiro. (J7)

It is designed for Rapiro, but the use is not just limited to Rapiro.
