Make Your Own Game Boy
Have you ever remember how fun it is to play a Game Boy when you were a kid? With MAKERbuino you can build your own game console from scratch! It’s assembled with ease. All of the components are easy to solder. All you need is some basic soldering skills and you’re good to go!
Programmed in Arduino
The device is based on easy-to-find components and programmed in Arduino – one of the most popular DIY microcontroller platforms.
More Than A Game Console
Building the MAKERbuino is only the beginning. Program a cool retro game, add an extra analog stick, connect a GSM module, use your MAKERbuino to control a quadcopter, add a Wi-Fi module and connect it to the internet. The MAKERbuino hardware and software is designed to encourage you to make new content and extensions for it. We can’t wait to see what you’ll make!Customization
Design a custom 3D printed or CNC cut casing, change the button caps, turn your MAKERbuino in a cellphone… Make your MAKERbuino unique. Throughout the process of hacking and customization, you’ll enter the world of electronics, CAD designing, 3D printing, programming, all in a fun and challenging way.
Perfect for Kids
Kids want to have fun!MAKERbuino lets them learn different STEM skills (Science, Technology, Engineering, & Mathematics) in a fun and explorative way. Thousands of kids have assembled the MAKERbuino and learned about electronics, soldering, software, hardware and so much more.
What you will learn with MAKERbuino?
- how to solder
- what are the basic electronic components and what are their functions
- how can electronic components be connected and why
- what are microcontrollers and some basics of digital electronics
- how to program a microcontroller in C/C++
- what are 3D printers and how to modify and design your own unique 3D printed casing
- how to extend beyond MAKERbuino’s capabilities by adding various expansion modules
