Kitronik Smart Greenhouse Kit for the BBC micro:bit

Product information "Kitronik Smart Greenhouse Kit for the BBC micro:bit"

The Kitronik Smart Greenhouse Kit for the BBC micro:bit provides an exciting way to learn about the relationship between plants and their environment. The user will learn how to monitor environmental conditions and then how to build automated systems.

The kit comprises a two-part plastic greenhouse, Kitronik environmental control board, water pump, Kitronik ZIP Stick, and Mini Prong soils moisture sensor. Also included are 5 crocodile clips, ZIP extension cable and a small screwdriver. Just add a micro:bit, seeds, and then some water and you will have everything you need!

The kit also ships with detailed instructions that will get you up and cultivating in no time. Additionally, there are 7 online MakeCode tutorials. They cover everything from gathering sensor data and having the system automatically react to it, to visual user interfaces and more.

At the heart of the micro:bit controlled Kitronik Smart Greenhouse Kit is the Kitronik environmental control board. This board provides a variety of sensor inputs and connection points for the BBC micro:bit (V1 & V2) and provides the ability to control outputs for devices such as a water pump, fan, servo or heater pad.

Micro:Bit V2 Nur Platinen
Das BBC micro:bit ist ein codierbarer Taschencomputer mit Bewegungserkennung, eingebautem Kompass, LED-Display, Lautsprechern, Mikrofon und integrierter Bluetooth-Technologie. Die Platine misst 4cm x 5cm, ist in verschiedenen Farben erhätlich, macht Spass und ist einfach zu bedienen. In wenigen Sekunden kann etwas Einfaches codiert werden - wie das Aufleuchten seiner LEDs oder das Anzeigen eines Musters - ohne Vorkentnisse des Computerwesens.  Mit anderen Geräten, Sensoren, Kits / Objekten verbunden,  ist diese Platine ein Begleiter zu Arduino, Galileo, Kano, littleBits, SparkFun und Raspberry Pi, die als Sprungbrett für komplexere Lerneraufgaben dienen. Jedes Element ist über eine einfach zu bedienende Software auf einer eigenen Website (www.microbit.co.uk) vollständig mit einem PC, Tablet oder ein Mobilgerät programmierbar. Enthalten ist nur die BBC micro:bit Platine!
