Esplora Joystick Photosensitive Sensor,Support LCD

The Esplora Joystick Photosensitive Sensor board is a complete Arduino-compatible microcontroller board, derived from the Arduino Leonardo and shaped like a game controller. It carries an analog joystick, four buttons, a light sensor and many other inputs and outputs on one board, so beginners can start coding interactive projects without any wiring, and it has a socket for an optional colour TFT LCD.
