ABSTRACT
As the democratization of electronics gains more momentum, we are interested in thinking of electronics as material that can be combined with other traditional ones such as paper, cardboard and screws. littleBits is an opensource library of discrete electronic components pre-assembled in tiny circuit boards. By creating simple, intuitive, space-sensitive blocks we attempt to make prototyping with sophisticated electronics a matter of snapping small magnets together. With a growing number of available modules, littleBits aims to move electronics from late stages of the design process to its earliest ones, and from the hands of experts, to those of artists, makers and designers.
