Introduction

MindPlus Coding Kit for Arduino is a set of tools for programming learning. As its compatibility for Mind , a graphical coding software for starters, and Arduino IDE, this kit is well applicable to students from the lower grade to the higher grade.

It comes with an Arduino Uno R3 mainboard and a sensor expansion board V7, and 18 commonly used sensors and actuators. These sensors are equipped with Gravity interfaces, which are easy to use and allow your creativity to be realized more quickly.

The course for this kit will first start from lighting up an onboard LED on Arduino to help students step into the world of coding. Then more sensors and actuators will be used to realize complicated functions in later projects. Four aspects are covered in the courses: algorithms & programming, computing system, network & the internet, data analysis. Students will practically participate in the projects like Express transportation detection via IoT, Mobile smart client, and so on, during which they will get to know basics about coding, internet and data as well as build logical thinking skills.

What is Mind ?

Mind is graphical programming software for teenagers integrating with all kinds of mainstream mainboards and open-source hardware. As it supports AI and IoT, you can build a program by dragging and snapping coding blocks, or using advanced programming languages like python, c, c . It can help you to easily experience the joy of creating!

1) Offline Programming Editor

Mind is a programming tool, which allows you to build a program by dragging and snapping coding blocks. With tons of tutorials, sample projects, and a large community, it is one of the best tools for you to learn programming from absolutely zero!

2) Create Interactive Projects with Hardware

Mind supports a wide range of hardware including Arduino, micro:bit, or even a series of ESP32-based educational microcontrollers, which makes it possible to let the program change your real life. Not only that you can use microcontrollers to interact with the PC in real-time, but also you can upload the code and let them work as standalone smart devices.

3) Wide Range Add-on Component Support

The build-in component list allows you to one-click add electronic modules to your project. You may choose from sensors, actuators, display, or communication modules to make your project fun and powerful.

4) Convert Blocks into Coding Languages

The build-in interpreter in Mind converts blocks into Python or C language, creating a steady but progressive learning path for learning how to code.
