GENIE is a low-cost microcontroller programming system designed exclusively for education. Through the freely available, user-friendly programming software, GENIE microcontrollers and project boards allows users to add intelligence, control and a magic touch to their design projects. At the heart of the microcontroller system is the Genie IC, available in 8, 14, 18, 20 and 28-pin versions, suiting a wide range of different applications. It is possible to run multiple programs at the same time on a single chip and also to run and test programs live on a connected GENIE chip.
