Maker Faire Bay Area 2009

littleBits

Stage B , Sunday 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM Ayah, the author of littleBits will talk about how to make electronics a traditional material, like paper, plastic, cardboard, nuts and bolts. Make something, light it, push it, turn it, twist it, bend it, buzz it, blink it, shake it!

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 little engineering knowledge, littleBits are simple, intuitive blocks that make prototyping with sophisticated electronics a matter of snapping small magnets together.
