The Lampyrida is a firefly-like circuit board with a transistor and two LEDs that are turned on/off by a photoresistor under the influence of light. It can be used to study the laws of electricity and the principles of the operation of semiconductor components.
This board will not be used during programming classes. This kit can be used even just to gain skills and experience in soldering, so the success/failure of its assembly is not crucial for moving forward.

Assembling this board during the Tinusaur Course is optional and depends on the time we have, the skills of the specific group, and the course’s needs.
IMPORTANT: The product you get might have slight differences from what you see in the pictures or the detailed description. The functionality remains as described.
Resources
Guides
We prepared very detailed instructions for assembling and using all the boards and other items in the kit. They are available in PDF and other formats.
Video
For some of the boards and other items, we also produced detailed instructions and other helpful materials in a video format, available on YouTube or our website.
Docs & Specs
Additional resources such as specifications, technical descriptions, sample programs, and other useful materials are available on our website.
Development Environment
We created the Blocktinu, developed specifically for the Tinusaur boards, allowing you to create programs using blocks (similar to Scratch) and directly in the C language.
