Description

High-Performance Computing for Distributed Interactive Play

The PlayerLabs CoreNode-32 is the central computing backbone for distributed interactive gaming networks in FECs, trampoline arenas, and laser tag installations. Powered by the Espressif ESP32-S3 dual-core Xtensa LX7 processor running at 240MHz, it delivers real-time deterministic hardware control combined with 2.4GHz Wi-Fi/Bluetooth 5 telemetry.

Key Features

  • Dedicated CAN 2.0B Transceiver (TI SN65HVD230) for multi-drop game bus up to 1Mbps.
  • SP3485 RS-485 differential interface for long cable runs up to 300 meters.
  • Wide input voltage: 7V–28V DC with reverse polarity and TVS spike protection.
  • Dual RMT level-shifted channels for jitter-free WS2812B/SK6812 pixel strip control.
  • 16 opto-isolated inputs with hardware debouncing.

Standard UK Commercial Price: £34.50 ex. VAT / £41.40 inc. 20% VAT.
