Creoqode, the London-based technology and design company, unveiled a new handheld PC fit for game developers titled the 'Lyra+.' The Lyra+ is an open-source PC based on the 'Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4,' which is fit for everyone from hobbyists to professional developers.
The device boasts an ARM processor with four 1.5Ghz cores, 4GB of 3,200Mhz RAM, a 6,000mAh battery, and both Bluetooth 5 and Wifi 5. One of the most notable features of the Lyra+, though, is its screen.
