NEW! Piper Make Base Station is base kit for all Piper Make products. This kit includes the Raspberry Pi microcontroller which serves as the brains of all Piper Make Missions you’ll find on our free, drag-and-drop coding platform make.playpiper.com. Piper Make is designed to work with Chromebooks, or any other computer using a Chrome browser – just connect to your computer using the included cable.
The Base Station is a unique concept that students may build using the included blueprint, wood and brass hardware. Parts may be stored inside the Base Station and the top section with the Raspberry Pi Pico may stored facing up or facing down inside the Base Station for added protection.
With the Base Station, students will be able to access 14 self-guided tutorials on Piper Make – from blinking an LED to making music with resistors. As you help Piperbot and Pip explore Mars in our storyline, you’ll learn computational thinking, basic circuitry, and so much more. Learn more about what you can do with the Piper Make Base Station with our Quick Start Guide.
With the Piper Make Base Station you can also get widgets like a Controller, Walker, Rover, Hear Rate Sensor, Solar House and more! The Base Station is REQUIRED as the base for these widgets.
