ShakeUp Deluxe
The ShakeUp makes you a STE(A)M 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.
When you Shake the ShakeUp it sends a keystroke to your computer.
You can also connect everyday objects to the ShakeUp using the included alligator jumper cables.
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 (and type it into a spreadsheet)
Just plug the ShakeUp into your computer (any computer that supports USB Keyboards and Mice) and you are good to go.
No software is required to get started!
