Abstract

A hexagonal receptacle for housing electronic hardware in a scalable electronic system is disclosed. A hexagonal receptacle (figure 1) is composed of six coplanar side faces (12) as in figure 9 of substantially equal dimensions, a top face (14) as in figure 12 and a bottom face. A plurality of hexagonal receptacles may be arranged in a compact array to form the scalable electronic system. In addition, each hexagonal receptacle includes at least one transport channel on one or more of the side faces for communicating with adjacent hexagonal receptacles. Each hexagonal receptacle may also include one or more transport channels on the top face for communicating with electronics outside the hexagonal receptacle, and one or more transport channels on the bottom face for comminicating with adjacent hexagonal receptacles.
