LittleBits

The sequencer allows you to connect up to 8 outputs and control them in sequential patterns. Sequences that would take as long as 4 days to program without littleBits will only take you seconds!

The USB I/O module allows you send and receive digital audio and control voltages to and from a computer. When using in conjunction with a DAW, you can record your Synth Kit directly into a computer without the need of an external audio interface. You can also send audio from a computer into the littleBits system to manipulate it, for example with the filter and delay modules.

With this Bit, you can control your circuits with motion. The motion trigger is similar to the sensor on an automatic door: when someone is moving nearby, it sends an ON signal to the following Bits. It's very sensitive, so don't move a muscle unless you want to be detected! Try it with some LEDs to create a security light.

The temperatures sensor responds to the temperature surrounding its probe. The higher the temperature it senses, the more signal it sends out.

The random Bit creates unpredictable voltages and trigger signals to create complex sound sequences. It can either produce white noise, or it can control oscillators to make them play random pitches.

The split lets you connect a single Bit to 2 others. If you place an input before the split, it will control the 2 outputs at once, like a single light sensor controlling 2 motors (to spin car wheels!). The flexible wires on the split also allow you to place your Bits farther apart and position them how you like.

Use this Bit to control your circuits with sound! The sound trigger listens to the noise level in your room, and sends an ON signal when it gets over a certain level. Try it with a Bit that lights up to create a circuit that responds to the snap of your fingers.

The branch Bit gives you more options for connecting your Bits: it lets you connect the output of a single Bit to as many as 3 others, oriented in different directions. Use it when you want to trigger light, sound and motion at the same time.

The timeout Bit is a settable timer. Try it after a button and follow it with a light. Press and release the button to start the countdown.

Vibration Motorin avulla voit laittaa minkä tahansa esineen värisemään. Tämä Bit sisältää myös vibeSnapin jolla voit yhdistää erilaisia esineitä, kuten paperia, moottoriin.

The NOR Bit is a logic gate with 2 inputs. It sends an ON signal only when neither input is receiving an ON signal. In other words, it’s the exact opposite of the OR Bit. The NOR Bit is good for inventions in which you want the output to be ON, unless 1 or both of its inputs are triggered.

The XOR Bit is a logic gate with 2 inputs. Think of it as "exclusive or," meaning that it sends an ON signal when it’s receiving an ON signal exclusively from 1 input or the other, but not both.

The OR Bit is a logic gate with 2 inputs. If input 1 OR input 2 is receiving an ON signal, then it sends an ON signal from its output.

The NAND Bit is a logic gate with 2 inputs. Think of it as "not and." The NAND Bit will always send an ON signal unless both input 1 and input 2 are receiving an ON signal. It’s the exact opposite of the AND Bit.

Twist this dimmer back and forth to control your circuit. As you twist the knob clockwise, more signal goes to the Bits that follow, brightening lights, speeding up motors, or raising the volume on buzzers.

You know what a button is! It’s a classic: big, round, and springy. Push to turn your creation on, and release to turn it off. Snap a buzzer in place after your button to sound out signals in morse code!

The motorMate works with the DC motor. This makes it easy to attach wheels, paper, cardboard, and lots of other materials to the DC motor.
