Sensor-
The Sensor layer has ports for eight
resistive sensor inputs. By the use of a voltage divider, measurement
values are converted by a 12-bit A/D converter. It is also possible
to directly access power, ground, and the analog voltage-sensing
lines directly from the ports as different sensing needs require.

High-Speed
Sensor - The High-Speed Sensor layer
is capable of performing 8-bit differential analog voltage conversions
at a rate of up to 100 Megasamples/Second. The input signal bandwith
limit is approximately 1.5 GHz, to allow for some of the most demanding
sensing applications. [details...]

Keyboard/Mouse-
The Keyboard/Mouse layer is general purpose
I/O layer for PS/2 compatible control signals. There are two ports
on-board, allowing for simultaneous connection of both devices.
In addition to input signals, these ports can also be configured
as slave devices to allow the Tower to control keyboard and mouse
ports on personal computers to provide for interesting applications.

Joystick-
The Joystick layer has one input for a
stand computer joystick. This goal of this layer is to provide a
new level of control for specialized applications that demand it.

CCD
Camera - The CCD Camera layer
provides an input for a small color CCD camera. Image data can
either be stored on one of the available storage layers, or
can directly be streamed out to a host computer or handheld
device. [details...]
