LED Dice Kit. LED Dice (Die) Kit Note: The name Dice kit sounds a great deal better than ‘Die Kit’, so the maker bent the English grammar rules just a little in the name of making a marketable product. There is only one die per kit (you do have your choice of red or green LEDs). Designed for beginners, the kit comes with everything you need to make one ‘Electronic Die’. What does it do? Tap the completed kit on the table and the LEDs light up and show a number from 1 through 6. After a short while, the LED dice goes into sleep mode, until the next time it is tapped. The kit is easy to solder together, making it a great kit for anyone wanting to jump into the kit making arena. Please note: Some easy soldering is required. How does it work?

The principle is rather simple. The Dice kit ‘reads’ the impact using the piezo sensor that you will be gluing to the bottom acrylic base. This sensor reading enters the PCB as analog voltage. 3x3x3 LED Cube Arduino Shield. Solder:Time Watch Kit. Solder:Time Watch Kit. Edo-Style Clock Kit.
