Looks like a great range of stuff there. Good to see some youngsters there as well.

Looking forward to the 14 week curriculum to become fully available.

Hopefully the group can come up with some great applications that will fire up the imaginations of the next generation.

I like it.

Teach them they can do things before others try to tell them they cannot do such things.

Thanks! ...if I get one, I may want to do a shaking animation on the screen when you're shaking it!
Or, anyone else is free to give it a try! lol

Thanks.... good to see an actual unit working lol.
My computer lagged during the video, but it didn't show the dice thing, did it? I was curious about a die-rolling animation on it lol.

Also, what do you call a platform like that, with LEDs in a square, if I wanted to connect and control it with another device? I need one a good few inches wide, lol. Any ideas?
