Assuming you don't heed my warning and don't mind your friends beating you to pulp, I'll help I've seen usb widgets that can control electrical things. I think I was a power strip that can be so controlled at adafruit.com. Likewise, I built a robot whose sensors and motors were controlled via usb. This was before the Raspberry Pi's, so I used a ITX board (small form PC motherboard that was running Linux). Source: 6 months ago
If you want to get into embedded programming I'd start at adafruit.com. Source: 11 months ago
Professional eval systems can be quite good, but what I'd recommend is going over to adafruit.com. They have a massive amount of small embeddable boards, as well as i2c peripheral boards when you just need that extra function. They are very easy to prototype in CircuitPython but can also be programmed with Arduino. I know you want to avoid Arduino, so what you want for a more professional environment is...

Adafruit.com is an online store that sells all of this stuff though you can find everything much cheaper on alibaba, ebay and others. Adafruit is host to a whole library of projects and tutorials with comprehensive instructions, code and images. Source: 12 months ago

I know about globalsources.com but it's more focused on Asia and electronics. I've seen another one for coffee but it's not transparent, you can't browse suppliers on your own. Source: over 1 year ago
Definitely ! An interesting sphere to get into. I would suggest globalsources.com for it. Just try it once. It's a good B2B wholesale marketplace. Source: about 2 years ago
How does one go about looking for suppliers? I could only find 2 sites this one which seems shady with the url alone and this I'm sure there's more reliable sites out there that I know nothing about. Source: about 2 years ago
