Arduino has released a new Plug and Make Kit starter kit. It will serve as an entry point for enthusiasts who are not familiar with the soldering process, The Verge reports.
The kit includes an Arduino UNO R4 WiFi microcomputer with Bluetooth and its own built-in 12 x 8 LED dot matrix display, as well as seven different Modulino components that can be connected using cables that plug into the one-way ports of the connectors. The kit will cost $87.36.
The Modulino's components include an adjustable handle, a strip of dimmable LEDs, a motion sensor, a distance sensor, a buzzer, a thermometer and a humidity sensor, and a set of three buttons. All components, including the microcomputer itself, can be attached with the included screws.
The Arduino Plug and Make Kit includes tutorials on how to use each component and step-by-step instructions for building seven devices, such as a video game controller, synthesizer, proximity lamp, and electronic hourglass.
