The Crumble is an easy-to-use programmable controller. It can drive 2 motors forwards and backwards at variable speeds. It has 4 IO (Input/Output) pads which allow connections to switches, LDRs, low power LEDs and so on.
The Crumble has been designed to encourage tinkering, using ‘croc leads’ for quick and simple connections. Pads allow terminal blocks to be fitted or a direct solder connection made, while the larger 4mm holes make an easy target for conductive thread and needle.
The Crumble software runs on PC, Mac, Linux (including the Raspberry Pi) and Chromium-based web browsers. Inspired by MIT Scratch, programs are simply built by snapping blocks together on screen. Sending a program to the Crumble is almost instant, allowing rapid experimentation.. Sending a program to the Crumble is almost instant, allowing rapid experimentation. The Crumble can digitally control full-colour LEDs, called Sparkles (two are included).
