Adding littleBits to the prototyping experience

Prototyping is at the heart of our engineering education. With resources (via our Karlskrona Makerspace environment) we are now adding the littleBits to our library. LittleBits are electronic circuits that snap together and in an instant you build circuits, add CloudBit and you got it internet connected! For more information: Product Development Research Lab Director, Professor Tobias […]
