We are 140% funded and there are only 16 hours left of our Indiegogo campaign. This would’ve not happened without your support. 🙂 By continuing to support our cause you will help us get even more Tinusaur kits to our students. Not interested in getting a Tinusaur board? You can donate to the project! Our promise: … Read more
2016 has been a great year! Over 20 workshops, lectures, seminars, courses. One Indiegogo campaign. Hundreds of people started using the Tinusaur platform. So, what’s next? Our Q1 goal: Launch new Indiegogo campaign in February to produce 1000 Tinusaur kits and bring the cost down to $2 per basic kit. This will make our boards … Read more
As you may already know last week we announced the Tinusaur Shield LEDx2 – this is very simple add-on board that you put on top of the Tinusaur Board. It has just 4 components: 2 LEDs and 2 resistors for each LED – there is no much to solder. Now we have bundled this with a Tinusaur Board and … Read more

Boards were produced by OSHPark – they look great, as usual. We also received a small batch from SeeedStudio – cheaper but still looks good. We are … Read more
This is quick update for what is happening in the lab. The design of the board is pretty much final. We consider this as release candidate marked as RC1 – it probably won’t change much or not at all. It is available on 123d.circuits.io at this address: http://123d.circuits.io/circuits/116696. You can order the PCBs there or if you prefer … Read more
To start making things with the Tinusaur you need the board, the parts, a programmer with a cable and couple of LEDs to make your first blinking lights program for ATtiny85 microcontroller. We’re ordering the PCBs and the parts from the manufacturers and it seems that the total cost for the full package will be … Read more
