We launched on Kickstarter, with four build-it-yourself kits in August 2021. We smashed our goal by nearly 2500% and our kits are now available to buy in our online shop!
Our kits are designed to help you understand microcontroller based circuits, as well as the peripherals that are commonly connected to them. You build each kit, then assemble them together to build a working device that looks awesome on your desk.
Microcontrollers are found in all sorts of consumer products: microwaves, smart plugs and lights, clocks, keyboards, mice, toys, your car, the list is near endless. They are able to read inputs from sensors, humans etc. and take action in a pre programmed way through the circuitry connected to them and the way they have been programmed.
Our designs are compatible with Arduino and the Arduino IDE, so if you’re curious about how they, or any of the appliances and gadgetry around your house work, then these kits have the answers. You don’t need any prior knowledge, just a soldering iron, solder, a screwdriver and an Alan key. We have loads of ideas for boards, so expect a large family of options to develop to help you learn this fun and fulfilling topic.
Here’s the initial line-up:
