You have bought the IDE Connected Interaction Kit. This kit will be your starting point when doing interactive technology projects in the Bachelor or Master programs of the Faculty of Industrial Design Engineering of the TUDelft. The composition of the kit is designed in such a way that you can start easily and quickly as a lay-person and develop your skills onward to a more advanced level. From plug-and-play use of Grove components to creating custom breadboard circuit to connect anything electronic imaginable.
We sell this kit to students from the Faculty IDE, we sell the kit for a price that covers the bare costs of having it produced and providing the support. We do not need to make a profit from selling it.
How to get started

What to do if things don’t work
When you are trying hard, you’ve carefully read all information but you still cannot get it to work. Then visit the PMB workshop and ask for help. The friendly staff can help you to verify that it really does not work or tell you what is wrong. Please be sensitive to how busy the staff is, sometimes a lot of students have work in PMB due to their educational schedule. At those moments you can first ask if they have time to help you or ask for a time that they are available.
