SparkFun Inventor's Kit for Arduino Uno - v4.0
KIT-14418 ROHS

DESCRIPTION INCLUDES DOCUMENTS EXAMPLES
The SparkFun Inventor’s Kit (SIK) for Arduino Uno 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 consisting 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 online guide contains step-by-step instructions with circuit diagrams and
hookup tables for building each project and circuit with the included parts. Full
example code is provided, new concepts and components are explained at point
of use, and troubleshooting tips offer assistance if something goes wrong.
The kit does not require any soldering and is recommended for beginners ages
10 and up. For SIK version 4.0 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 v4.0, 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 completely new strategy, even if you’ve used the SIK before, you’re in for a
brand-new experience!
This version of the SIK replaces the SparkFun RedBoard with the Arduino Uno
(SMD version) and comes without the SIK guidebook and carrying case. With
these components being swapped and removed, we were able to reduce the
overall size and weight of the kit, making shipping cheaper and easier for
anyone ordering internationally.
Note: As stated above, this SIK does NOT include a carrying case or print
guidebook.

In 2003, CU student Nate Seidle blew a power supply in his dorm room
and, in lieu of a way to order easy replacements, decided to start his
own company. Since then, SparkFun has been committed to sustainably
helping our world achieve electronics literacy from our headquarters in
Boulder, Colorado.
No matter your vision, SparkFun's products and resources are designed
to make the world of electronics more accessible. In addition to over
2,000 open source components and widgets, SparkFun offers
curriculum, training and online tutorials designed to help demystify the
wonderful world of embedded electronics. We're here to help you start
something.
