PicoBricks - Make, Run, Split, Merge, Just What You Needed.

Pico Bricks, whose development was completed after an R&D process of up to 2 years in cooperation with Robotistan and BenMaker, is now open to crowdfunding on Kickstarter!

Pico Bricks was funded more than 200% in a short time.

Although learning is an enjoyable adventure, it can be challenging for most people. Many makers, especially those who develop themselves in the fields of robotics or electronics, always need harmonious instructions.

Gathering information from public forums, trying to follow irregular or imprecise instructions may cause everything more complex or complicated while learning something.  A good learning experience requires well-prepared documentations, well-ordered instructions and of course well thought of technologies.

This is where Pico Bricks emerged as a solution and is a platform specially designed to provide a good learning experience. Pico Bricks is a learning platform designed for people of all ages who want to become a maker.

Pico Bricks is a development board specially designed for Raspberry Pi Pico. It physically houses 10 electronic components on it, and in the center there is a special area to place the Raspberry Pi Pico. In this way, you can use all components only via Pico without wiring.

Pico Bricks is not just a product. Thanks to its software and technologies, it is a platform that covers all aspects of learning. It has been revealed as a solution to overcome and facilitate the difficulties that may be experienced during the education phase.

Pico Bricks can work in harmony with the block programming principles that make it easier for children to learn coding. It can run Python scripts on MicroBlocks in a compatible way.

As we mentioned above, Pico Bricks is a platform in its entirety. 

Physically, it is a development board which consists of 10 most-popular on-board components. 

In the center of this board, there is a special area for you to place the Raspberry Pi Pico. In this way, you can directly use Pico and the components without wiring or extra soldering. Some of these components are: OLED Display, relay, motor driver, buzzer, LDR, potentiometer, button, leds and finally temperature - humidity sensor. It also has places that allow you to use both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules.

Pico Bricks isn't just about that. It is a development environment that you can use virtually, thanks to its fully compatible simulator. In addition, a specially produced IDE for Pico Bricks is part of this platform.

The main purpose of Pico Bricks is making it easier building a project and learning. It allows you to use various electronic components on a single board. You do not need any wiring or soldering work to use these components. You can use the component you want instantly just by editing the codes.

Pico Bricks supports block programming. Especially children can learn how to make an electronic project in an enjoyable way by just playing with the blocks without any wiring issue.

In addition to these, Pico Bricks' specially developed software support also accelerates your work. Thanks to its simulator, you can simulate your projects before you do them and see the results, and you can develop projects even when Pico Bricks is not with you.

Pico Bricks is a development platform that you can easily migrate. It is approximately the size of a hand and can be carried easily thanks to its special box. You can code with Pico Bricks anytime, anywhere.

Pico Bricks is also very advantageous for classroom works. It does not create any crowd in a lab environment, it allows you to experiment with projects collectively.

Thanks to its modular structure, you do not need to use cables, it allows you to use the relevant component directly by reading the pin numbers on it. You can just insert your Pico board in the center area and you're ready to code directly.

Pico Bricks, which eliminates the hassle of wiring for children or beginners, has many features that also make programming easier. With its structure that supports the principles of "block programming", you can make projects even without writing code.

Pico Bricks also has a custom designed IDE and simulator. In this way, you can continue to develop projects even when you do not have Pico Bricks with you. It is also possible to experience the results beforehand by simulating the project before making it.

No joking. It is for all people that have an interest in electronics and coding. Thanks to incredibly flexible design and software environment;

• A beginner with little knowledge in coding can use it without any electronic skills due to its modular design and beginner-friendly IDE + Simulator.
• A beginner with little knowledge in coding can use it without any electronics skills thanks to its simulator and tons of example projects. You can even use it only in IDE without a physical Pico Bricks!
• An expert with good knowledge in electronics can use and develop its modules with high flexibility. The carefully written Docs allows for changing the logic of modules. Also, you can create your own modules in its built-in protoboard!
• An expert with good knowledge in coding can use Pico Bricks with little knowledge in electronics. All the modules are pre-assembled on the board. You just need to write your codes in Pico Bricks IDE and click RUN!

From our perspective, we are dividing the maker industry into two. One is the hardcore component world which needs great knowledge and experience if you want to work on high-quality projects. The other one is the modular cards world which is much easier to use and learn but also developed by big brands making it much more expensive for an average maker.

So we have mixed these two worlds in the Pico Bricks Board. How?

• Using widely known generic components on it. No fancy expensive components.
• Beautifully designed but not luxurious, we used sturdy and affordable materials.
• We do not add extra profit to our price like big brands. Our aim is to distribute the product all over the world. 
• It's modular, if you are from a member of the first group, just break the modules and use them as standard components. Otherwise just do not break them, it will be the easiest development board for new makers!

• From our experience, we know what modules you will need most when you start your maker journey. Robotistan.com has been selling educational electronics for 10 years proudly!
• Much cheaper than real-life examples. If you buy all Pico Bricks modules and a Raspberry Pi Pico from big brands, it will nearly cost you 3X!!
• Suitable for all ages and levels thanks to its flexible design and environment.
• No cable spaghetti and soldering! Pico Bricks has built-in connectors on all its modules.
• Carefully written Docs and Pico Bricks IDE + Simulator make it almost foolproof for all levels.
• Nearly unlimited connection possibilities you can use; 
• Built-in protoboard for your very own custom modules.
• Ready for the IOT Revolution! Just connect an esp8266 to the right connector. Voila! You have wireless now!
• Ready for classroom usage. Thanks to our simulator, only one board is enough in a learning environment. Students can use the simulator and avoid extra costs.
• Pico Bricks IDE + Simulator: Scratch-like Ide with the built-in block editor, code editor, project library, simulator example codes, tutorials, and a real console.
