## Description

A note for SparkFun Inventor's Kit v4.1 users: The only change that was made from the SIK v4.1 to the SIK v4.1.2 is our new carrying case. All of the internal parts and instructional guide have remained the same! The SparkFun Inventor's Kit (SIK) is a great way to get started with programming and hardware interaction with the Arduino programming language. The SIK includes everything you need to complete five overarching projects of 16 interconnected circuits that teach everything from blinking an LED to reading sensors. The culminating project is your very own autonomous robot! No previous programming or electronics experience is required to use this kit.The full-color, spiral-bound SIK guidebook (included) contains step-by-step instructions with circuit diagrams and hookup tables for building each project and circuit with the included parts. Complete example code is provided, new concepts and components are explained at the point of use, and troubleshooting tips offer assistance if something goes wrong.The kit does not require soldering and is recommended for beginners ages 10 and up looking for an Arduino starter kit. For the SIK version 4.1 series, we took an entirely different approach to teaching embedded electronics. In previous versions of the SIK, each circuit focused on introducing a new piece of technology. With SIK v4.1.2, components are introduced in the context of the circuit you are building, and each circuit builds upon the last, leading up to a project that incorporates all of the components and concepts introduced throughout the guide. With new parts and a new strategy, even if you've used the SIK before, you're in for a brand-new experience!The SIK v4.1.2 includes the RedBoard Qwiic which allows you to expand into the SparkFun Qwiic ecosystem after you have become proficient with the SIK circuits. The SparkFun Qwiic Connect System is an ecosystem of I2C sensors, actuators, shields and cables that make prototyping faster and less prone to error. All Qwiic-enabled boards use a common 1mm pitch, 4-pin JST connector. This reduces the amount of required PCB space, and polarized connections mean you can’t hook it up wrong. With the addition of the SparkFun RedBoard Qwiic, you will need to download a new driver install that is different from the original SparkFun RedBoard.Get Started With the SparkFun Inventor's Kit v4.1 Experiment GuideIncludes: SparkFun RedBoard Qwiic Arduino and Breadboard Holder SparkFun Inventor's Kit Guidebook White Solderless Breadboard SparkFun Carrying Case SparkFun Mini Screwdriver 16x2 White-on-Black LCD (with headers) SparkFun Motor Driver (with Headers) Pair of Rubber Wheels Pair of Hobby Gearmotors Small Servo Ultrasonic Distance Sensor TMP36 Temp Sensor 6' USB micro-B Cable Jumper Wires Photocell Tricolor LED Red, Blue, Yellow and Green LEDs Red, Blue, Yellow and Green Tactile Buttons 10K Trimpot Mini Power Switch Piezo Speaker AA Battery Holder 330 and 10K Resistors Binder Clip Dual-Lock™ Fastener Revision Changes: With this revision of the SparkFun Inventor's Kit - v4.1.2, we have swapped out the Carrying Case - Black HDPE with a new SparkFun Carrying Case. The Carrying Case - Black HDPE has been replaced with the SparkFun Carrying Case.Documents: SIK Printed Guidebook (PDF, Download File: 31.8MB) SIK Print Guide Errata (v4.1) Online Experiment Guide RedBoard Qwiic Driver Install SIK Info Page Dimensional Drawing SIK Case Insert Files Examples: Project 1: Light  Circuit 1A: Blinking an LED Circuit 1B: Potentiometer Circuit 1C: Photoresistor Circuit 1D: RGB Night-Light Project 2: Sound  Circuit 2A: Buzzer Circuit 2B: Digital Trumpet Circuit 2C: "Simon Says" Game Project 3: Motion  Circuit 3A: Servo Motors Circuit 3B: Distance Sensor Circuit 3C: Motion Alarm Project 4: Display  Circuit 4A: LCD "Hello, World!"
