Due to popular demand we've created our ShakeUp Classroom pack!
The ShakeUp makes you a STEAM inventor by helping you to connect everyday objects to your computer. If you can plug in a Keyboard and Mouse, you can use the ShakeUp.
The Magic Science
When you plug the ShakeUp into your computer, your computer thinks it's just a regular keyboard and mouse, but when you hook objects up to the ShakeUp using the included alligator clips.
When you close the electrical circuit, the ShakeUp sends a keyboard stroke or mouse signal to your computer.
Unlike other boards on the market that do similar things, the ShakeUp also includes a temperature sensor, accelerometer and gyroscope.
With the addition of these sensors:
- you can detect tilting (forward, backward, left and right)
- detect knocks and bumps (great for physics experiments)
- collect temperature data
Made in Australia
To ensure quality, we (Little Bird) make the ShakeUp in Sydney, Australia.
The ShakeUp Classroom STEM Pack includes:
- 15 x ShakeUp Boards
- 15 x Protective Cases for your ShakeUp
- 15 x Alligator Clip Packs (150 cables in total)
- 15 x Mini-USB Cables
- 150m of Copper Tape (5 rolls)
- 2 x Conductive Thread
The other cool thing about the ShakeUP is the beautiful patterns and colours we can put on the board. We have many designs including Space, Circuit Board, and Funky colours. The colour of your board will be chosen AT RANDOM - but if you have a preference please leave a comment at checkout and we will do our best
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- alligator clip
- An alligator clip is a spring-loaded metal clip used to make temporary electrical connections to wires, terminals or test points. It is useful for quick bench testing, but it is less secure than a screw terminal or locking connector.
- conductive thread
- Thread made with metal or other conductive fibres so it can carry electricity while being sewn into fabric. It matters for wearable and textile projects because it can replace wire, but it has more resistance than normal hookup wire.
- Gyroscope
- A gyroscope measures rotation, such as how fast a board is turning around its X, Y, and Z axes. This matters for projects like gesture controls, balancing robots, and motion tracking where tilt or rotation changes need to be detected.
