The Cypress board has been discontinued by Cypress Semiconconductor. Unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be a follow-on device for output. But, there are lots of alternatives for inputs including the CCI board from EStop Robotics and the TI Launchpad board from Texas Instruments. Additionally, the Arduino Leonardo also has a mode that makes it behave as a Joystick. I'm just hoping that the 2015 control system gets a way to drive digital outputs at the driver station so we can drive status LEDs for the drivers. Those are much more visible than a virtual LED on the SmartDashboard.

HTH,

Mike
