Lego Creativity Toolbox for CoderDojo #5

Open andrewbolster opened 5 years ago

andrewbolster commented 5 years ago

Is your suggestion related to a problem? Please describe. While we have lots of 'hardware', most of it is not directly accessible or usable by amateurs/kids

Describe the solution you'd like Set asside funds/find sponsorship for purchasing a BOOST Creative Toolbox (£150)

Describe alternatives you've considered We've already been trying to use previously donated, many-pieces-missing mindstorm/technic kits, but this is not fit for purpose.

Additional context This kit would also be great for Adult outreach, Family Day's and Hackathons for rapid prototyping.

Also has BlueZ bindings for Linux pyb00st

I got a few bits for Belfast Tech Families so the equipment can also be used for Dojo.

(Payment didn't process on these 2, oops. I'll try again tomorrow) https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00008BFZH/ref=od_aui_detailpages01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B016OU7W8C/ref=od_aui_detailpages01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Btw I'm not sure how to respond to issues with this system but I know who to ask for funding.
