KANO Motion Sensor Kit

Description

Ridiculous fun for everyone. Anyone can make and play with the Motion Sensor Kit - big and small, young and young at heart. It’s KANO's simplest, most affordable coding kit yet. Wave your hand and make magic. The Motion Sensor Kit works with the Kano app. It uses simple steps, storytelling, and practical projects to help you understand the principles of coding, and have fun!

Start with a story
Open the box, take out the bits. Connect the sensor, sucker and cable. Follow the book, all by yourself. Plug it into your computer, play with code and learn as you make.

Learn to code
Step-by-step challenges show you how. Drag blocks, learn logic, play with movement and sound. See the Javascript behind your creations. Wave, swipe, poke and shake to make suns rise, music play and mouths drop.

Make some noise!
Control tons of sounds with different subtle hand movements. Foghorns blare, lions roar and sirens wail. Bang drums, strum guitars and tap synths. Play with pitch, bend sounds, make beautiful music together.

Build games with movement
Get up, move around. Flap to make flappy birds fly. Swipe to return balls in Pong. Make your own games that get people swerving, dodging and shaking. Plug in two sensors and play with a friend.

For ages 6+.
