Secure your base of operations using motion sensors, keypad and RFID locks, and make an alarm system using fun RTTTL jams
Protect your food with a dry plant alert system using the water sensor. Then fix the high power ventilation using fans and connecting it up to a relay.
Make some conveniences: Accurate Alarm clocks using the RTC Module, Infrared RGB smart party lights with working remote, and even clap lights using the sound sensor!
Discover other survivors who share valuable info on how to fight back against the AI. Program the new T-Display to set up a Wi-Fi hotspot and control our systems in a web browser.
Create a radar system using the touchscreen shield and ultrasonic sensor. Then add some upgrades to make an RGB Cannon to confuse the AI (using BOTH the Hero XL & T-Display).
Using the T-display, connect to the secure ‘survivor-net’ to send up a “virtual signal flare” to take back the world for humanity.
We’re tossing in our Robotic Arm Kit if you place an order today. Just to reward those who are early to the launch of our kit.
United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia
We will send you a link to all your bonuses to the email you purchased the bundle with. They are also found under the courses tab of our website!
We ship all USA orders with 3 day USPS shipping. International orders are usually there in 2-3 weeks.
We’ve had students as young as 6 and as old as 91. Both had a great time exploring the kit. Often we see the best results with teens or retired geeks. Warning: This kit contains small and pokey parts such as LED’s and resistors. Child supervision is required. Also parts will get hot if they are wired up incorrectly so always use caution when testing a new circuit for the first time.
Yes! If for some reason you didn’t have a good experience or you never opened it and lost interest we have a full 30 day money back guarantee. Just send it back to us before the 30 after your purchase arrives and we will return your payment. Refunds will take a few days to be posted to your account.
Yes! We also have resources available on our GitHub. The HERO is a derivative of “Arduino UNO R3 Reference design” we just changed up a few things to make it our own. If you’re curious about what goes into our HERO board we published the open source hardware files on our GitHub.
Our training easy to follow, however, this can be a downfall… if you just get in and rush through projects (copy and paste code) you won’t truly learn. You can complete most projects in the beginner training in 30-60 minutes each. Take your time to explore the training and think of each lesson as a new mental tool you can use in your maker toolkit. Once you learn how to make LED’s blink feel free to venture and create your own alternative to the main lesson – curiosity is the best teacher! Don’t stress about how many hours are optimal just work at your own comfortable pace and explore your own paths :).
