"littleBits is an opensource library of discrete electronic components pre-assembled in tiny circuit boards. Just as Legos allow you to create complex structures with very little engineering knowledge, littleBits are simple, intuitive, space-sensitive blocks that make prototyping with sophisticated electronics a matter of snapping small magnets together."
They havn't got any sets on sale at the moment, but I'd be interested in trying it out when they are. As I have no knowledge of electronics at all!!

Good idea with the magnets that apparently repel if you try and make the wrong connection
ReplyDeletewas thinking "what if you put things the wrong way round"
If they are for sale, would be glad to know too.
