LEGO® Technic™ Distance Sensor

    LEGO® Education «SPIKE™ Prime» The LEGO® Education SPIKE™ Prime Set is the go-to STEAM learning tool for grade 6-8 students. Combining colorful LEGO building elements, easy-to-use hardware, and an intuitive drag-and-drop coding language based on Scratch., SPIKE Prime continuously engages students through playful learning activities to think critically and solve complex problems, regardless of their learning level. From easy-entry projects to limitless creative design possibilities, SPIKE Prime helps students learn the essential STEAM and 21st century skills needed to become the innovative minds of tomorrow... while having fun! The heart of the SPIKE Prime system is the programmable Hub. This advanced yet simple-to-use, brick-shaped device features 6 input/output ports, 5x5 light matrix, Bluetooth connectivity, a speaker, 6-axis gyro and a rechargeable battery. The SPIKE Prime Set also includes highly accurate motors and sensors that, together with a large variety of colorful LEGO building elements, let students design and build fun robots, dynamic devices and other interactive models. Many attachment points on the Hub, motors and sensors plus new, large building elements means students spend less time building and more time learning. The durable storage box and 2 sorting trays also means time spent setting up and clearing away is kept to a minimum, while the smaller trays are ideal when desk space is limited. The intuitive coding environment for tablets and computers takes the best elements from the popular coding language based on Scratch, creating a system that teachers and students will love. In addition to Getting Started Material, the app comes with 3 unit plans of curriculum-aligned STEAM content focusing on Engineering and Computer Science. Optimized for 45-minute lessons, these units accelerate STEAM learning by consistently engaging students to think critically and to solve complex problems, regardless of their learning level. Comprehensive online lesson plans with a wealth of accessible, interactive support material gives teachers everything they need to deliver lessons with confidence, whatever their previous experience.   * Important notice regarding LEGO® Education SPIKE™ Prime ( Art. No. 45678): Due to extraordinary shortages in LEGO's production facilities, LEGO® Education SPIKE™ Prime sets are temporarily out of stock.

The Raspberry Pi Build HAT combines the power of Raspberry Pi computing with LEGO® hands-on learning to enable a fun and creative learning experience for students, teachers and makers. It has been produced as part of a collaboration between LEGO® Education and Raspberry Pi to make it easy to control LEGO® Technic™ motors and sensors with Raspberry Pi computers to increase the impact and reach of STEAM learning.​ It is supported by guided projects from the Raspberry Pi Foundation designed for secondary school students, the Raspberry Pi Build HAT delivers a unique hands-on learning experience that's accessible, engaging, and confidence-building for all students. The Raspberry Pi Build HAT is compatible with the most recent generation of LEGO® Technic™ motors and sensors from the SPIKE™ Portfolio. The available sensors include a distance sensor, a colour sensor, and a force sensor. The angular motors come in a range of sizes and include integrated encoders that can be queried to find their position. The Build HAT also supports motors and sensors from the LEGO® MINDSTORMS® Robot Inventor kit, as well as most other LEGO® devices that use an LPF2 connector. The Build HAT fits all Raspberry Pi computers with a 40-pin GPIO header, including — with the addition of a ribbon cable or other extension device — Raspberry Pi 400. Connected LEGO® Technic™ devices can easily be controlled in Python, alongside standard Raspberry Pi accessories such as a camera module. This board can also be used with the LEGO® Maker Plate,  which allows the user to easily attach Raspberry Pi computers to the LEGO® building system. The LEGO® Education SPIKE™ Prime Set 45678 and SPIKE™ Prime Expansion Set 45681, available separately from LEGO® Education resellers, include a collection of useful elements supported by the Build HAT. The new, specially designed LEGO® Maker Plate is the first LEGO® element ever designed to connect to something that isn’t another piece of LEGO®. The Raspberry Pi Build HAT power supply, available separately, is designed to power both the Build HAT and Raspberry Pi computer along with all connected LEGO® Technic™ devices. The Build HAT has the distinction of being the second Raspberry Pi product, after Raspberry Pi Pico, to be powered by the Raspberry Pi RP2040 microcontroller.  

Build high-response robots with the LEGO® Technic™ Medium Angular Motor featuring low-profile design, integrated rotation sensor with absolute positioning and 1-degree accuracy. Ideal for lower-load, fast-response applications.  Low-profile design for smaller models where space is limited.  Absolute positioning and integrated rotation sensor for true straight-line control.  Tacho feedback control for 1° accuracy.  Zero-point markings for simple calibration.  Simple form factor for quick building and rebuilding.

The LEGO® Technic™ Force Sensor measures pressures of up to 10 Newtons (~1kg) for accurate, repeatable results. The sensor can also be used as a touch sensor when pressed, released or bumped. Measures up to 10 Newtons (~1kg).  Doubles as a touch sensor with pressed/released/bumped detection.  Simple form factor for quick building and rebuilding.

This kit is designed to connect SPIKE Prime Ultrasonic sensor  cable to  breadboard. It contains a PCB, pins headers, jumpers and screws. Includes Assembly Instructions. (Requires soldering).
