Обучающая игрушка littleBits

littleBits are small, simple, intuitive blocks that make working with electronics a matter of snapping small magnets together with no experience required. The littleBits cloudBit Starter Kit is the easiest and fastest way to turn your creations into an internet-connected smart device, enabling you to create home-made solutions to everyday challenges.

By connecting with any web service or hardware on IFTTT you can connect your cloudBit to Twitter so that each time you get a retweet the LED lights module lights up. Or each time you're tagged in a photo on Facebook, your littleBits buzzer module makes a noise. The possibilities are endless with the purchase of different modules from the littleBits library.

littleBits electronic modules connect to each other using magnets, making them mistake-proof and easily interchangeable. Modules are colour coded depending on their function, for example pink represents inputs and green, outputs. Thanks to this colour coding system, no prior knowledge of electronics or circuitry is required, making the kit open to people of all ages.

With the included button module you can make something happen from a few feet or a few thousand miles away with the cloudBit.

The Sound Trigger is an input that allows you to trigger an action via the cloudBit when it senses a sound, for instance receiving a text when the doorbell rings.

The servo is an output that turns and could be used, for example, to turn an appliance on or off when you're away from home or even to feed your goldfish!

The cloudBit module lets you turn any "dumb" product into a smart device using it and any other combination of littleBits modules.
