ElecFreaks micro:bit Tinker Kit

The ElecFreaks micro:bit Tinker Kit is developed in collaboration with TINKER ACADEMY, a respected educational provider based in Singapore with a strong academic foundation. This comprehensive kit includes a wide range of Octopus sensors and step-by-step tutorials, enabling students and makers to build dozens of exciting digital projects. It’s an ideal resource for exploring electronics, coding, and design through practical, project-based learning.

The ElecFreaks Octopus:bit is an expansion board designed to extend the micro:bit’s capabilities. It breaks out the GPIO, serial, I2C, and SPI ports, making it easier to connect various modules. A standout feature is its ability to shift voltage levels on select GPIO pins, allowing compatibility with 5V sensors—opening up even more possibilities for creative experimentation and real-world applications.

Plant Monitoring Device : Upload your code into the micro:bit and stick that moisture sensor into the base of your plant. You pots will be able to tell you when your plants are thirsty! Music Machine: Since there are 5 buttons, we need to code 5 similar conditional statements. Each button controls a sound of a particular pitch. So press each buttion, we will get sounds of different pitches. Electro-Theremin: We want to make sure the highest potentiometer value still corresponds to the highest note we can play. Check out the value of the lowest and highest notes in the micro:bit piano keys. Twist the knob to control alien noises! Smart Light: Upload your code into your micro:bit. Walk into the dark with your new smart light, or place it in a room to brighten up when you walk in.

Note: micro:bit not included
