Raspberry Pi 4 as a USB-C peripheral

You can also do a USB client on a $1.50 AVR chip: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.obdev.at&#x2F;products&#x2F;vusb&#x2F;index.html" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.obdev.at&#x2F;products&#x2F;vusb&#x2F;index.html</a><p>Source: Compiled and connected a mouse&#x2F;keyboard firmware running on an ATtiny861a using internal RC oscillator.

<p><pre><code> [R]ecent update to the Raspberry Pi 4 bootloader (...) enables data over the USB-C port </code></pre> Am I reading this right that RPi4 has <i>five</i> usable USB ports, i.e. unlike earlier models, port on bottom left of the board can carry data along with power? This is awesome!

Yay, that feature was previously only available on the Pi Zero. Does anyone know if this will work on older computers, using a USB A-to-C cable?

Fyi: USB-c in the rpi 4 is not standards compliant.<p>A new revision is underway, a fix is just using dumb cables.

Is there anything like this that can act as gadget devices for more than one host? (So I can plug it in to 4 different PCs or the like)

I fail to imagine a usw case for that. Could someone enlighten me?

Literally converting it into a successful Mac accessory itself is a kickstarter gold!

wonder if this would be a much better hw solution for TeslaUSB...<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;cimryan&#x2F;teslausb" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;cimryan&#x2F;teslausb</a>
