Gravity: Beginner Kit for Raspberry Pi 2 (Windows 10 IoT Compatible)(Discontinued)

Gravity: Beginner Kit for Raspberry Pi 2 (Windows 10 IoT Compatible) is discontinued now. We recommend Raspberry Kits as replacement where you might find other products interested.

This is the basic Raspberry Pi 2 Model B development kit designed for Windows 10 IoT Core OS. The second generation Raspberry Pi is more powerful than its predecessor, with an ARM Cortex-A7 quad-core CPU. This gives it a lot more exciting capabilities that can be used with this kit, including being able to run a scaled-down Windows 10 system.

The IoT beginner kit comes with basic sensor modules such as push buttons, LED modules, temperature sensors, light sensors, rotation sensors and soil moisture sensors. Using the Pi's integrated WiFi module makes it possible to connect to the Microsoft's "Azure" Cloud service easily where you can upload your sensor data to the database.

After learning how sensors work, you can build simple applications such as indoor temperature alarms or fire alarms. The relay module even gives you the ability to turn devices on and off remotely in your home, office or garden. You can set up a device to turn on all the lights in your house at a certain time. Why not set up a machine to feed your fish when they are hungry? When your plants are thirsty, water them automatically! There are many fun applications for this kit. Experience the magic of Windows 10 IoT!

Check out the tutorial for some cool project ideas based on this kit.
