The cloudBit is the easiest way to create internet-connected devices. You can now snap the internet to anything! Retrofit your thermostat to control it remotely, or set up a sound-triggered alarm system that texts you alerts–the possibilities are endless. No programming, soldering or wiring required.
Build anything, including a DIY Nest, SMS doorbell, and hundreds more ideas online!
Add instant I.Q. to your devices with the littleBits Cloudbit Starter Kit! Now anyone can create an Internet-connected device with the new Cloud bundle.
This is the same product as the Cloud Starter Bundle, but with updated packaging
The Cloud Bundle is the fastest way to turn an object into a smart object – or something that can easily connect to the internet. The kit’s limited edition, so it won’t be around for too long, and contains six of littleBits’ favorite prototyping modules.
As usual with littleBits, there’s no programming, soldering, or wiring required. Project examples are a remote pet feeder and an easy way to set up your lights to turn on and off with just a text message. It also allows all of your past littleBits projects to connect to the internet through any web service like Facebook, Gmail, or Twitter!
All of this makes the littleBits Cloudbit Starter Kit perfect for developers, hackers, and electronics’ beginners!
This Kit includes:
1 cloudBit
1 button
1 sound trigger
1 long LED
1 servo
1 USB power
1 power adapter + micro USB cable
1 screwdriver
1 instruction card
2 mounting boards
The cloudBit needs a lot of juice, and only works with a “p3 usb power bit”. Don’t worry, the p3 usb power bit AND a US wall adapter are included in the bundle!
We are angry, frustrated, and in pain because of the violence and murder of Black people by the police because of racism. We are in the fight AGAINST RACISM. George Floyd was murdered, his life stolen. The Adafruit teams have specific actions we’ve done, are doing, and will do together as a company and culture. We are asking the Adafruit community to get involved and share what you are doing. The Adafruit teams will not settle for a hash tag, a Tweet, or an icon change. We will work on real change, and that requires real action and real work together. That is what we will do each day, each month, each year – we will hold ourselves accountable and publish our collective efforts, partnerships, activism, donations, openly and publicly. Our blog and social media platforms will be utilized in actionable ways. Join us and the anti-racist efforts working to end police brutality, reform the criminal justice system, and dismantle the many other forms of systemic racism at work in this country, read more @ adafruit.com/blacklivesmatter
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.
