The KoreIO is a general Input and Output extension board for the KoreBot. It provides several interfaces for digital I/O, digital power outputs, 10 bit analog inputs and 8 bit analog outputs. The KoreIO can operate in stand-alone mode or communicate with a KoreBot or any external SPI or I2C master. A CAN bus controller is also included to connect a KoreBot stack to any CAN devices.

The KoreIO has been superceded by the KoreIOLE. However limited productions of the KoreBot are occasionally ran, providing some availability.

The KoreBot and the newer KoreBotLE are compatible with either product's extension boards and accessories.

The KoreIO supports the KB-250 interface. The KB-250 interface is an open standard interface to expand the functionality of an existing KoreBot base platform in a easy and fast way. Besides using a full line of off-the-shelf KB-250 modules, developers can also design their own modules. KB-250 modules can be used singularly or stacked together to give the needed functionality. Several KoreIO boards can be placed on one stack to allow control of a large number of I/O.

A set of high level commands is provided, to easily interface KoreBot programs or for external operations.
