A smartphone is the prettiest black box in existence.   Due to volume economics, smartphones only expose features needed by the common man.  That's a shame, as even a low end smartphone includes powerful technology that could be used to solve a variety of computing problems.  

Kite breaks up the smartphone into pieces, creating a set of building blocks that you can use to create any device that needs the features of a smartphone: high performance in a battery powered mobile form factor, augmented by complete connectivity and great multimedia features.  

Kite empowers anyone to build a smartphone with nothing more than a 3D printer and a screwdriver.  Kite's architecture allows anyone to build the devices of their dreams by changing the casing, antennas, batteries, and adding custom electronics.  

Kite is not limited to phones. You can build everything from a dumb-phone to a drone, and even a powerful desktop.   Your imagination sets the limits of what you can do!
