Include hardware and/or software platform.In addition, in some of the exemplary embodiments, because module is not needed to be programmed and not needed
Central circuit controls these modules, so system is independent and does not need computer or maincenter (hub).But
According to an exemplary embodiment, system may be connected to the mobile dress of such as computer, maincenter, memory or personal electric
The equipment for setting (for example, mobile phone, smart phone etc.), to generate additional function or obtain information or electric power from the equipment.
In some aspects, module is designed to be joined together and cascade one by one.Module includes ensuring that electrically
It connects and can be extended and be mounted on the magnetic connector on PCB.Magnetic connector can be public connector form and mother
Connector form, and can correspond to north pole face and the South Pole face of magnet in some examples.For calibrated bolck, each piece of tool
There are two magnetic connectors mounted thereto, one faces out the north pole face of (one or more) magnet, another makes
