- ArduinoArduino is the most popular open source microcontroller platform on the market. These easy to program devices can read sensors, control relays, light up LEDs, and even talk to one another. Their ability to interact with the real world by way of sensors and other electronics makes them ideal for automation such as watering a plant when it is dry, reading the weather, or controlling lights when it gets dark – the possibilities are endless. We carry a variety of Arduino compatible microcontrollers from several manufacturers, each with their own specific strengths and purposes. To further specialize your microcontroller, we carry a large selection of daughter boards (shields) which can add powerful sensors, GPS, or even LCD screens to your project! Just getting started with microcontrollers? We carry a variety of Arduino starter kits to get you reading sensors and blinking lights as easily as quickly as possible!
- BBC micro:bitThe BBC micro:bit is a pocket-sized computer designed for beginners in electronics and coding. The micro:bit makes getting into these often daunting fields as easy as possible. Programming the micro:bit V2 can be done by computer or by their intuitive app available for Android and iOS devices. Code can be designed using a drag and drop interface in the Blocks editor, Javascript, or Python.
- ESP8266
- FeatherThe Adafruit Feather line of Arduino compatible microcontrollers are designed with battery power and portability in mind. These thin form factor Arduinos have a built in single cell lithium charge circuit built right in – just plug in a LiPo battery and off you go! Just like a standard Arduino, Feathers can have additional feature “wings” stacked on top. Best of all, Feathers are available with a variety of chipsets and built in wireless modules – there is an Adafruit Feather for every project!
- Makey MakeyThe Makey Makey kit is a electronics kit designed for beginners. It explores the concepts of creating circuits through everyday items. When plugged into a computer you can use the Makey Makey to make anything into a keyboard or mouse. No programming required! Projects like a Banana Drum Set, Cat Detector, Musical Stairs, and countless others are easier than you think! We carry the Makey Makey Classic Kit – a starter kit for the Makey Makey – along with extra alligator clips, copper conductive tape, and replacement cables.
- Raspberry PiThe Raspberry Pi was first introduced in early 2012 as a simple, low cost, computer fit onto a circuit board roughly the size of a credit card. The idea was to use this low cost computer to promote teaching of computer science in schools but it has grown to be so much more! Since its release, well over 30 million of these little computers have been sold. We have carried the Raspberry Pi in Canada since it first became available and have watched as the Pi has morphed into a complete development platform with powerful single-board computers, cameras, touchscreens, and other accessories. Its multitude of inputs and outputs for electronics and computer peripherals and its impressive computing power mean it can be used to make just about anything you can imagine. The newest and most powerful version, the Raspberry Pi 4, is now available!
