RASPBERRY PI BUILD HAT Raspberry Pi - Build HAT

The Raspberry Pi Build HAT board has been developed in collaboration with LEGO® Education to allow LEGO® Technic™ motors and sensors to be controlled using a Raspberry Pi computer. It provides four connectors for LEGO® Technic™ motors and sensors from the LEGO® Education SPIKE™ portfolio. Available sensors include a distance sensor, a color sensor, and a force sensor. The angular motors are available in different sizes and have integrated encoders that can be queried to determine their position.

LEGO® Technic™ devices can be easily controlled in Python, as can standard Raspberry Pi accessories such as a camera module. The Raspberry Pi Build HAT power supply, sold separately, is designed to power both the Build HAT and the Raspberry Pi computer and any connected LEGO® Technic™ devices.

The LEGO® Education SPIKE™ Prime Set 45678 and SPIKE™ Prime Expansion Set 45681, available separately from LEGO Education retailers, include a collection of useful items supported by the Build HAT.
