SparkFun Paper Circuits Kit

Welcome to the world of paper circuits - creating electronic projects directly on paper using simple components! The SparkFun Paper Circuits Kit teaches the fundamentals of creating an electric circuit without needing to solder or code at all! Using the provided templates, strips of copper tape, and LEDs, the SparkFun Paper Circuits Kit provides 10 fun and informative light-up robot cards that take only 5-10 min to assemble! No previous electronics experience is required. If you are unfamiliar, a paper circuit is a functioning electronic circuit built on paper rather than on a PCB. Projects can range from greeting cards and origami to traditional art, such as paintings and drawings. What makes them unique is the use of traditional fine art techniques to create a circuit that combines aesthetics and functionality. Paper circuits are becoming more and more popular in the hobby electronics world. The easy availability of craft-like materials and the increasing abundance of new products have created a unique ecosystem for crafters looking to make the leap into electronics projects. The only things you will need to build each simple circuit card that aren't included in the SparkFun Paper Circuits Kit are CR2032 coin-cell batteries, scissors, a hole punch, tape, and any coloring supplies to make your little robot pop. Finally, if you need more cards, we've provided a PDF of the Robot Template card, as well as Underwater and Blank Paper Circuit Templates in the Documents section below. This allows you to print out more cards as you need them at no additional cost!
