24. There’s Always Something Cool in the #DevZoneLab

25. Important Notes
•
•
•
•
•
Proceed only at your own risk. You are messing with wires and hardware and other fun
stuff. Be careful. Don’t poke your eye out.
If you smell something burning, unplug whatever you just plugged in. Something is wired
wrong.
Many items are relatively fragile. Be careful and try not to break anything. Please don’t
spill water or food on anything. Move slowly. Be gentle.
Many items require you to download software. You should do this before you start. It’s
boring waiting around.
We hope you find this lab and these devices useful. However, PLEASE DO NOT take
anything home with you. We have limited quantities.

26. Makey Makey
Makey Makey is the most fun
you can have with 6 Bananas
and a computer. YOU’LL
LOVE IT. #FruitHack
Available for checkout.

27. Arduino Experimentation Kit
The Arduino is an open source prototyping
board. The experimentation kit is a great
way to get hands on for the very first time. It
has easy to follow instructions & lots to play
with. Includes 10 easy lessons.
Product Page on Adafruit
You’ll need to install the Arduino IDE.
Intermediate project: Build a Wireless
Sensor Network

28. Raspberry Pi Starter Pack
The Raspberry Pi is an education oriented single board computer
which runs Linux and has onboard network connectivity. The
starter pack is a great intro to the Pi and it’s capabilities. Note:
when you start it up, you land at a text prompt in Linux.
Product Page on Adafruit
Connect Using Console Cable (requires Serial Port driver install)
Connect Using SSH (once you know your IP address)
Default Username/Password: pi/raspberry
How to install Node.js, How to update your keyboard layout, How to
free up the serial port so you can use it(ttyAMA0)
Note: if you get stuck, we have two monitors, two keyboards, two
mice and two USB hubs designed for you to log in.

29. Adafruit FLORA GPS Starter Pack
FLORA is a wearable computing platform from Adafruit. Sew it on,
track your GPS coordinates, make lights blink, etc.
Adafruit Product Page
Learn: Getting Started With FLORA
You’ll need a special version of the Arduino IDE.
Notes:
Sometimes the wires with alligator clips don’t conduct that well.
You might have a faulty wire. Try another one.

30. Adafruit FLORA Sensor Pack
Sense colors, direction and motion using this wearable computing
starter kit. Great fun to wire up and blink blink blink.

You’ll need a special version of the Arduino IDE.

31. Peristaltic Pump
Connect to an Arduino and a motor controller to move
liquids around. Should also work with a Gertboard and Pi.
Careful: please don’t get other equipment wet.
Note that these specify 12V power supply. They work just
fine with the 9V battery packs.
Also, the tubing that’s in place hasn’t been sterilized and
isn’t FDA approved as food safe.

32. TTL Laser Diode Red
Combine with a Photo Cell to build a trip light or
People Counter. Hold in place using a Mounting
Stand. Control using an Arduino.

33. Servo
These are really great. When installing on an Arduino
motor shield, the BROWN wire is closed to the edge,
the Yellow is closed to the pins.
Tower Servo

34. Accelerometer
You’ll probably want to calibrate this for
serious work, but this simple sketch will get
you the output.
These are soldered and ready for use on a
breadboard.

35. Ultrasonic Range Finder
A great way to understand the world around
you. Simplest hook up is 3 wires. Note that
the pins are described on the bottom of the
range finder.
Product Page, Sample Code

36. Motor Shield
Add to an Arduino to control 4 motors and
two servos. Use with the 6xAA 9v Battery
Pack. Power the Arduino as well by closing
the VIN Jumper.

DC Motor, one Servo.

37. LCD Displays (2 x 16)
Great way to see what’s going on with your
project. The tutorial uses 6 digital pins, no
Serial.
