Virtual inputs can be addressed to hotkeys on your keyboard!. Real-Time Debugging - Workshop offers real-time visual debugging so you can see exactly where and how your program flows during runtime!. Data Logging - You can record multiple inputs through Workshop. Useful for science projects and to track value changes over time. Recorded values can then be exported to CSV!. Graphing - Playback your recorded data on a graph right within Workshop! Create Quickly - With Cubit, build projects in minutes that would’ve taken hours before.Grows with You - Cubit’s learning curve was planned out from the start.
Start creating in seconds, but as you learn and grow, Cubit has more advanced features that will meet your needs.Intuitive - Build projects exactly how you think about them. Let Cubit handle the low-level interactions.Accessibility - Anyone can use Cubit! If you thought using electronics to build something cool was out of reach, Cubit makes it possible.Versatility - Cubit has a wide variety of Smartwares.
Almost any project can be brought to life with Cubit. Cubit is not limited to the Smartware we provide. Cubit also allows you to wire your own piece of electronic sensor or hardware to the controller by using Cubit’s custom Smartware. Cubit custom Smartwares come with open wire leads for you to wire into your own custom electronics.
You can then create custom commands within Workshop to identify and use your customized piece of Smartware!SoftwareCubit’s development tool, Cubit Workshop, is available on Mac and PC. Cubit connects to your device via Bluetooth, so simply pair your Cubit to your computer and launch the Workshop app!Workshop is a powerful visual programming environment that allows for complete control over Cubit’s controller and Smartwares. It makes programming interactions between hardware intuitive and easy. Under the hood, Cubit runs Lua, an open-source scripting language. The visual programs you create are converted into Lua scripts and then uploaded to Cubit’s microcontroller. So if you prefer to work with code, you can still write your own Lua scripts directly.
Our custom Lua library allows you to control almost any piece of Smartware with a single line of script. There's no need to compile your program; the source code (just a plain text file) stays on the chip and can be retrieved at any time. That means you can not only program your Cubit, but you can read the program off your friend’s Cubit, make a change, and deploy the new program. Risks and challengesCubit is currently being Beta tested and our engineers are completely committed to meeting our shipping deadlines.
That being said, hardware can be hard. We are doing everything possible to mitigate risk: working with an amazing hardware partner, working with engineers who have been creating products for years, and doing our best to set realistic expectations among our supporters as to when we can get Cubit into their hands.When it comes to manufacturing, we are working with a manufacturer that is just down the road from our houses.
They have manufactured dozens of products before and have an entire pipeline already established. Delays can happen in manufacturing though and our promise is to keep you informed of any changes and to be as transparent as possible.We're a team of engineers and designers with decades of experience between us. We're ready to finish Cubit and get it into your hands!
IOT is on rise and new projects are coming up everyday to help you get your hands dirty with IOT. Big blues are also pushing a lot into IOT, recently Microsoft announced free Windows 10 for Raspberry Pi, Intel is already building electronic boards and IDEs to get into IOT market and we just received the news that Google is presenting in happening at end of this month. Many good things are coming and we want our reader to be familiar and updated with these trends. Let’s talk about Cubit in more detail. What is Cubit?Cubit is a programmable electronic DIT kit that allows you to make whatever you can imagine. The hardware and software was meticulously designed and crafted from the ground-up to work together as seamlessly as possible. With drag-and-drop visual programming and plug-and-play hardware, you can develop programs without writing any code and use electronics without any soldering or configuration.
Cubit bridges the gap between software and hardware, making custom electronic projects easy and accessible to anyone.Cubit primarily consists of three integrated hardware and software components: the Cubit Controller, Cubit Smartwares, and our drag-and-drop app, Cubit Workshop. Cubit board can easily be extended with over 30 Smartports through the use of Multiplexer Smartwares. A single Cubit Controller can grow to meet the demands of even large projects. The Cubit Controller is a powerful Bluetooth-enabled 32-bit micro-controller.
It boasts six universal Smartports which accept any smartware component.For beginners cubit is easy to understand and develop projects and for experienced electronic hobbyist cubit is more than that it allows you to control hardware directly; you can create custom blocks and even wire in your own electronics.
