REKA:BIT is the little sibling of EDU:BIT, which was 575% funded on KICKSTARTER on Oct 22, 2020.
With the fundamental concepts acquired from EDU:BIT's 10+1 hands-on lessons, one is able to bring it further to apply the knowledge in creating more fun applications and even solving real-life problems with this micro:bit expansion board. Its much smaller board size is perfect for building innovation projects for schools and competitions, or even just to tame your cravings for DIY and making.

Program your REKA:BIT with Microsoft MakeCode Editor. Just add REKA:BIT MakeCode Extension and youâre good to go. If youâre a beginner, you can start with the block programming mode; simply drag, drop and snap the coding blocks together. For more advanced users, you can easily switch into JavaScript or Python mode on MakeCode Editor for text-based programming.
REKA:BIT possesses a lot of indicator LEDs to assist your coding and troubleshooting. It covers the IO pins connected to all six Grove ports and DC motor outputs from the co-processor. One is able to check his/her program and circuit connection easily by monitoring these LEDs.
Â
Besides, REKA:BIT also has power on/off indicator, undervoltage and overvoltage LEDs built-in to give appropriate warnings should there be any problem with the power input.
REKA:BIT features a co-processor to handle multi-tasking more efficiently. Playing music while controlling up to 4x servo motors and 2x DC motors, animating micro:bit LED matrix and even lighting up RGB LEDs in different colors, all at the same time, is not a problem for REKA:BIT.
