I recall a section on this. I know that as long as it is commercially available, code and circuitry are legal, but what about the arduino perhipherals(protoshields)?
What if I want to make a custom shield that logs data on a microSD card and indicate various things with bright LED's(hypothetical)

PS The shield mentioned above exists here

PPS This shield has a prototyping area, ruling on that please!

I'm no expert on rules, but looking through them you've got <R03>, <R45>F/G, <R50>, and <R68>. That's all I got for doing a quick search for "custom". I can't read them right now in depth to give a good answer, but I'll leave that to someone else.

Phototyping is always good for LEDs and whatever else you could want.

The building things in non-season rules? If I remember correctly, it's fine as long as its shared with other teams. 'Course again I'm no expert on the rules.

Note to self: I should work on this, I've got a arduino that needs a project.

We should set up a github to share code and manage it as it is being worked on.
