BLEBRICK 4-position mounting base

Four-position mounting base for connecting several Blebricks together.

SKU 7300-BLEBIB4Item type: Assembled, Shields & add-ons

Description

The IB4 Blebrick is a four-position mounting base that lets you connect several Blebricks together on a horizontal platform. It is useful for adding “Top” type Blebricks such as the BLE-B, CAP, PDM, UVA, RGB, IRR and IRT, which carry sensors that have to sit on top and “look” outwards in order to work. Dimensions (mm): 22.5×99.5×5, operating temperature: from –40°C to +85°C.

Blebricks: instant prototyping for IoT, smart sensors and RFID

The Internet of Things is finally within everyone’s reach.

Blebricks are smart building blocks based on a patented technology: by putting them together you can build new electronic devices that communicate wirelessly.

The technology lets you build devices even without any electronics or programming background. Prototyping is instant, which is why it appeals to anyone who wants to put together their own device quickly and easily.

How does it work? It could not be simpler

Each Blebrick performs one specific function. You can choose from a wide range of sensors, actuators, power and communication devices: motion sensors, environmental sensors, CO2 sensors, infrared sensors and air quality sensors, plus Wi-Fi, Ethernet and LP-WAN communication devices, to name just a few.

To add the functions you want, simply click the Blebricks together. They configure themselves automatically to work as one, and the prototype of your device is ready straight away!

You can view the sensor data and interact with it (locally, from your smartphone) using our MakeApp for Android devices. If instead you want to build a custom app, you can do it with MIT App Inventor.

Finally, you can interact with your Blebricks wherever you are, simply by connecting them to the Internet and logging in to the Bricksboard portal.

Thanks to this highly innovative technology, you can cut development time and cost by more than 90% on the way from idea to product. Blebricks are also low power, which makes them suitable for developing battery-powered, portable or wearable devices.

Because Blebricks are modular, the finished product is cheaper and quicker to build. Discover our Fast Route To Production.
