- 4 Output ports: A, B, C, D (to connect motors to EV3 Brick)
- 1 Mini USB PC port (to connect EV3 brick to computer)
- USB host port (to add Wi-Fi dongle and do “Daisy chaining”)

Planning to Participate
There is one LEGO:registered: Mindstorms EV3 kit available from the University of Maine Cooperative Extension. Participants may need to reserve their kit ahead of time with office staff (email alice.philbrick@maine.edu). Due to the nature of this kit, it may be signed out for up to three months at a time.
