Pico Bricks Base Kit
Pico Bricks is an electronic development board + software kit which is designed for use in maker projects. With ten detachable modules included, and a Raspberry Pi Pico WÂ as the brain, Pico Bricks can be used to create a wide variety of projects. It also includes a protoboard that you can use to add your own modules!
We’re now stocking the updated version which includes a Raspberry Pi Pico W and a slightly different central board! Please note some images are of the previous version.
Pico Bricks is for everyone interested in electronics and coding. Beginners with no prior experience will find it easy to get started thanks to the modular hardware design, Scratch-like block coding environment and simulator. Those with experience can dig more deeply into electronics or explore coding in Python. And even the most expert makers will appreciate how quickly they can explore ideas and create prototypes with Pico Bricks.
You can learn to code and program the various modules using MicroBlocks, MicroPython or even the familiar Arduino IDE.
PicoBricks Modules are Detachable!
Once you’ve explored the Pico Bricks modules, you may want to use some of them in a project.
Although Pico Bricks is compact, there’s no need to build the entire thing into your project. By detaching the Pico Bricks modules, you can connect just the modules you need using cables with standard, easy-to-use Grove connectors.
