Build the City of Tomorrow with the Smart City Kit
Prepare the engineers of the future with the ELECFREAKS Smart City Kit. This comprehensive educational package turns complex concepts, such as the Internet of Things and urban data management, into fun, hands-on experiments. Connect the sensors, write the code, and watch your city "come to life"!
IoT:bit Expansion Board & Cloud Connectivity
The true power of the kit lies in the IoT:bit expansion board, which integrates a Wi-Fi module (ESP8266). This allows the micro:bit to connect to the internet and upload data to ELECFREAKS' dedicated, free platform, smartiot.space. Students can view real-time graphs, understanding how Big Data drives smart cities.
Rich Sensor Collection (Octopus Series)
To simulate a real city, you need the right tools! The Smart City Kit comes fully equipped with industry-inspired sensors (adapted for education): a Water Level Sensor, an Ultrasonic (Sonar) sensor for distance measurement, a DHT11 for temperature and humidity, as well as a 180° Servo motor for creating automated mechanisms.
Real-World Smart City Scenarios
Let creativity run wild through exciting projects! Build a Smart Parking Lot that counts available spaces. Program a Flood Warning System for bridges using the water sensor. Create a Smart Trash Can that opens automatically when you approach, solving daily urban problems with the power of STEM.
Programming & STEM Education
Fully supported by Microsoft MakeCode, allowing students to program IoT functions visually using pre-made blocks (Extensions). The rich online WIKI provides step-by-step instructions, while for more advanced scenarios in robotics competitions, the system fully supports Python coding.
