Lego

 The latest edition of  Lego mindstorms, the 51515 programmable hub, may be less useful than the NXT and EV3 were.* I have not found much documentation but it does not appear you can daisy chain them. There are also only 6 I/O ports (though one might use multiplexers). Fortunately, having determined what range of actions (accelerations, etc.) caused breakage to Legos I can now use nonLego bots and register (virtual) pain or injury whenever any such limits are exceeded. I have also moved on to things like the Raspberry Pi and the BrickPi,  PiStorms, sense HAT, and other HATs.  

* And currently it can not be purchased independent of the mindstorms robot inventor set.
