micro:bit Interactive Coding Accessories Pack
$61.00 ex GST
($67.10 inc GST)
This add-on pack gives an existing Nezha Inventor's Kit or TPBot car a new set of senses. A colour recognition sensor and a gesture sensor let students build projects that respond to what they can see and to a wave of the hand — the point at which coding starts to feel like artificial intelligence rather than switches and timers.
What's included:
Planet X colour recognition sensor
Planet X gesture recognition sensor
Planet X NeoPixel light ring
Planet X trimpot module
Four RJ11 (4P4C) connecting leads
Over 180 building bricks
micro:bit, TPBot car and Nezha board are not included — this pack expands a kit you already own
What students practise:
Working with sensors that classify rather than simply measure
Mapping an input range to an output using the trimpot
Extending a project they have already built, instead of starting over
Block coding in MakeCode with the Planet X extension
Six documented projects on the ElecFreaks wiki introduce the ideas behind machine perception in terms a primary or lower secondary class can follow.
