We are excited to share the news with you.
We'll be launching our recent project on Kickstarter - Stem:Bit - A programmable blocks kit based on micro:bit..
Launching on 25 July 2019, 06:00 PM (BST)
What is it?
Simple! It is STEM Education and micro:bit based programmable blocks kit. Yes, a programmable blocks kit that lets you learn to program while you play.
We all love to play, don't we! No matter the age... :)
And we are also the techie generation for the STEM basics. (Psst... It's alright if you are new to this, you can still read the story ahead).
So, we at SB Components came out with a concept where we decided to give the pleasure of both programmings and playing, together. After all:
In other simple words, with Stem:Bit kids can utilize micro:bit to fully realize their ideas and truly unlock their imagination while on the play.
The kit is actually a programmable blocks kit that has more than 260 building blocks! Its core is the micro:bit and the micro:bit Stem Board.
The Stem board is a specially designed expansion board that is used for programming different movements, structures, sensors etc using the micro:bit.
Why Stem:Bit?
With Stem:Bit you can re-live your childhood imaginations and creativity, while a child can explore more about its potential towards programming.
Features
- Stem:Bit is based on micro:bit
- You can create multiple structures and application with just one Stem:Bit
- Learn to control structures with infrared remote control, obstacle avoidance, tracking, colorful lights and other functions
- Stem:Bit support multiple programming languages like Scratch, Block coding, Javascript and Python
- Stem:bit blocks are Lego compatible
- It is simply a combination of the building blocks and electronic modules
Needless to say more about it. Just grab your devices to stay tuned with our updates about its launch.

This Kickstarter sounds like it has the potential to be incredible. Most children would find programming quite daunting as it appears to be quite complex, but this is a great way of introducing them to it. I’m excited to see what the future holds for your project. Thanks for the blog!
