MOTG-BREADTOOTH is a 4D Systems product, consisting of a Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) bridge module and appropriate accompanying software tools. The bridge module interfaces between a microprocessor or computer system and a Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) compatible monitor. It allows for direct hardware-level access to the BIOS, so that the user can quickly and easily program their own applications. The module is also equipped with data collection capabilities, allowing for the logging of environmental data such as temperature, humidity, and other measurements. The accompanying software tools allow for the configuration and monitoring of the system, as well as providing various methods for data entry.
