This miniature Arduino that includes an OLED display called the MicroView is an interesting development. It is available from Kickstarter and has already been funded over $250,000 (10 times the goal). I hadn't previously heard about their earlier project Ninja Blocks, but it's evidence the team knows how to bring a product to market already. From the article:
You basically get a micro controller and a lot of inputs and you can drive the display via software, allowing you to build wacky little projects with various sensors, motors, and I/O devices.
The Microview can be programmed and powered from multiple sources although the guys who made it, Geek Ammo, are offering a little serial-to-USB programmer for $10 extra. It seems like it works great for wearables and for creating tiny brains for robots and sensor systems. It can also be used as a small ambient data display for cars, computers, and other tools.
