Elecfreaks Petal Smart Home Explorer Kit for the BBC micro:bit

The Elecfreaks micro:bit Petal Smart Home Explorer Kit is an interactive learning set designed for use with the BBC micro:bit. By combining sensors, servos, and modular structural components, learners can build practical smart devices such as automated lighting systems, temperature-controlled fans, and even clothes-drying racks.

The kit guides users from hardware assembly to logical programming, introducing core principles of coding and electronic engineering. Along the way, it inspires creativity, strengthens problem-solving skills, and makes technology exploration a natural part of everyday life.

Benefits

Discover an innovative new kit – the first to include a lifelike house model! With precision laser-cut basswood panels, you can design and build your own smart home ecosystem. The miniature house goes far beyond display value; it serves as a hands-on engineering platform where learners can route wiring, install sensors, and recreate real-world smart home applications. For added durability and stability, all expansion boards and sensors are securely fixed with rivets.

Features

Colour Recognition System No more connection confusion! With colour-coded sensor ports, hardware setup becomes effortless. Each port is matched to the corresponding MakeCode programming block—so when students see “Blue from temperature sensor,” they simply plug into the blue socket.
	Fool-Proof Connectors All sensors and expansion boards include keyed connectors that prevent incorrect wiring.
Decorate & Learn Enhance your wooden smart home with brick textures and design accents, turning it into a realistic miniature model.
