About this Product

The ELECFREAKS Bitboard Kit is an interactive circuit learning expansion board designed to transform everyday conductive objects into computer keyboard inputs. By connecting everyday items—such as fruit, foil, playdough, or water—via alligator clip wires, students can build custom game controllers, invent musical instruments like a fruit piano, and explore fundamental electrical conductivity concepts. Powered via Micro-USB, the Bitboard features 8 touch pads/contacts that register ground circuit connections. It is fully compatible with block-based programming environments like Scratch and MakeCode, bridging physical creativity and digital interaction for beginner and classroom STEM activities.

Features

Everyday Object Input Interface: Converts conductive items into keyboard buttons and interactive game controls
