XK30 - STEM School Kit
Each kit comprises classroom components:
- 10 XinaBox CPU and wifi units, or Raspberry Pi interfaces, or micro:bit interfaces to the XinaBox “things” of IoT
- 10 mini OLED screens for display or multiple sets of data
- 10 sets of sensors, namely, temperature, humidity, air pressure, visible light, UVA, UVB, volatile organic compounds, carbon dioxide
In addition, the kits have 2 satellite kits which can collect data from the school surrounds, be launched on large helium balloons and drones. These components are:
- GPS to give longitude, latitude position and altitude
- IMU for acceleration, magnetometer and gyroscope in X, Y, and Z axes. This data is used to calculate pitch, yaw, roll, bumping, dropping and orientation
- AA battery based power module
- Radios with matching ground station to transfer data
The kit demonstrates practically the full extent of Internet of Things by collecting data using sensors, transferring the data by internet to the data dashboard for tracking and analysing.
XinaBox satellite kits are true engineering models used in engineering and research institutions.
Educational Institutions are given access to the XinaBox Learning Management System, wiki, lesson plans as well as the Data Dashboard.
