Interhouse IoT Project Kit - Making IoT Creation Accessible to More Makers!
Home: California, United States
The IoT Project Kit makes learning the electronics and programming necessary to build Internet of Things devices more accessible. By combining inexpensive components of off Amazon and the IoTProjectKit.com free guides, you too can be building IoT devices! Come by our booth and try it out for yourself - we'll have microcontrollers, sensors and breadboards along with easy to follow guides. These guides will evolve to include leveraging Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and SMS to add in the connectivity component. Come experience how you can combine simple projects into more complex devices!

As a young person I got to experience Radio Shack's 75-in-1 Electronics Project Kit. The simple projects and easy guide made it possible to learn so much! While creating virtual marketing events that leverage Single Board Computers, I discovered the "Sensor Assortment Kits" on Amazon. They looked like they offered perfect building block for interesting projects. Unfortunately the documentation and guides are quite lacking. I've decided to leverage my experience as a tutor and BSA Merit Badge Counselor to create better content to help others learn more of the basics and get started. For under $100 someone can be learning to make very interesting IoT Devices.
