Snap Circuits

Basics

• An electronic prototyping system
• Uses Snap Fasteners and plastic shells for the electronic componets to make somewhat rigid, but easily adjusted final prototypes
  • The modules also sit on an unerlying pegboard
• It allows for circuits from a simple on/of switch light circuit, to an arduino interfaced complex circuit

Internal Links

• Open Source Electronics Prototyping System Construction Set (OSE's take on this concept)

External Links

• The Wikipedia Page on Snap Circuits
• Their Patent (mainly pertains to a battery holder, with a built in fuse system?) their patent should Expire in 4 years officially? (Granted OSE's work will be QUITE different, so unless they are a Patent Troll there should be no issue (and they could sell such a product as it is OS !) )
• Their Product Page
• The Arduino Module They Make
• The wall outlet ac, to board dc adapter system they sell (most likely irrelevant to the ose system, as it would use usb, or a lab style dc power supply)
