I bought the robot with their promise, they will support uci engines later. Playing against Stockfishs easy levels is a pain. I asked several times for uci support, no luck, they don't care...

DaVinci module is a 1.4 or 1.5 GHz QuadCore with 1 to 8G Ram for about150.- to 250.-€, so as for a dedicated only (without digital board but with 3.5" touch screen, optically it reminds me of Boris, this one was called "Briquette" because of its look-alike, way back then. I owned one and it came along with a foldable paperbox- board and plastic pieces :)) not easily to be undermatched regards
