Build the Home of the Future with the Smart Home Kit
Introduce children to the exciting world of home automation and the Internet of Things (IoT) with the ELECFREAKS Smart Home Kit. This package provides all the necessary tools to turn simple coding ideas into functional, smart home automations that interact with the physical environment.
Sensor:bit Expansion Board & Safe Connections
The heart of the system is the sensor:bit board, which extends the micro:bit's IO ports and allows the easy connection of multiple sensors simultaneously. Designed with a "Plug and Play" philosophy, it eliminates the need for complex wiring, allowing students to safely plug in 3-pin sensors and focus purely on creating and coding.
Rich Collection of Sensors & Components
The kit includes everything needed to build a complete smart home! Equipped with temperature (TMP36), sound, light, and soil moisture sensors, as well as an OLED display, RGB LED, Relay, DC motor, and Servo. All components belong to the reliable ELECFREAKS Octopus series, ensuring high quality and accurate readings.
Real-World Automation Scenarios
Bring theory to life! Program a "Smart Fan" that automatically turns on when the room temperature rises. Create a "Voice-Activated Switch" to turn on the lights (LED) with a clap. Build a "Smart Watering System" that detects soil moisture. With the Smart Home Kit, the possibilities are truly endless.
Programming & STEM Education
The Smart Home Kit is fully supported by Microsoft MakeCode, allowing children to program visually using blocks. It features a comprehensive online manual with step-by-step instructions for dozens of projects. For those ready to advance, text-based coding in Python and JavaScript is also supported.
