Microcontroller Experimentation Kit

Finally, a kit for the true geek parent! Spend some quality time with your teenager working on some serious electronics and learning microprocessor programming techniques. The Microcontroller Experimentation Kit ($150) introduces you to microcontrollers, sensors and basic programming. Build devices that use sensors to monitor and record data, then use that data to control motors, buzzers, lights and a digital display. The 144-page, full-color illustrated manual includes 100 experiments and guides you through circuit assemblies and programming. When you’ve mastered the basics move up to creating, designing and assembling your own circuits. Includes a sleek, portable case – but you’ll be too busy creating experiments to need it.
