Looking at the power of HATs

Raspberry Pi HATs are add-on boards that extend the capabilities of the Raspberry Pi, offering a wide range of functionality for various applications. These HATs provide an easy and convenient way to enhance the Raspberry Pi’s capabilities by adding features such as sensors, actuators, displays, communication interfaces, and more. In this section, we will explore two notable HATs: the Pibrella HAT and the Raspberry Pi Sense HAT.

Pibrella HAT

The Pibrella HAT is an excellent beginner-friendly board designed to introduce electronics and programming concepts to users of all ages. It features buttons, LEDs, and a buzzer, providing a hands-on experience for physical computing projects with the Raspberry Pi. With its intuitive interface and Python library, the Pibrella HAT offers a great starting point for learning and prototyping.

Despite being designed for the first version of the Raspberry Pi and thus having only a 26-pin GPIO connection, the...
