What is a Raspberry Pi

General information

One of the most exciting aspects of the Raspberry Pi is its ability to interact with the physical world via its GPIO pins. This kit provides the components needed to measure light levels, accept switch inputs, and power lights. Using the included breakout board, jumper wires, and breadboard, interfacing with your Pi's GPIO pins is easier than ever. Let your imagination run wild!

This physical computing kit includes a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ board, a 16GB SD card with OS, a power supply, a protective case, and a project pack with components, breakout board and breadboard.
