Projects

Houston, we’re ready for takeoff!! See how hardware and software can be combined in the final project of our #OutOfThisWorld STEM project series.

Every successful space flight needs a mission control. With your Piper Computer Kit, use PiperCode to program a launch sequence, sound effects, and LED lights to power your rocket’s boosters.

You may have played a game like Rock Band, Guitar Hero, or Dance Dance Revolution where a combination of buttons would appear, and to score points, you have to press the buttons shown (and not press the buttons that aren’t shown).

In this project, we will be creating our own version of that game. Instead of arrows, we’ll display which buttons should be pressed using 1’s or 0’s - so we’ll call this game Binary Hero!

Use the temperature sensor of your Piper Sensor Explorer to build a Goldilocks machine that tells you whether the temperature of an object is too hot, too cold, or just right.

In the first installment of our #OutOfThisWorld projects, reach for the stars with your very own rocket! With a few household items and your Piper Computer Kit, build a spectacular spaceship fit for the bravest of astronauts.

In this project, we will be creating our own music rhythm game! Instead of arrows, we’ll display which buttons should be pressed using 1’s or 0’s - so we’ll call this game Binary Hero!

Let’s explore binary code, a foundational part of computing! In this project, you will try to speak a few words in machine language, just as computers do.

With the new Piper Sensor Explorer, there are not only endless possibilities for creation, but now we can use data to inform our creations! Today, we’re going to build a beat-making machine using the Ultrasonic Range finder. Once we’re finished, we will have coded a special drum to produce rhythms!
