The Poly Reindeer XL Soldering & Programming Kit is the perfect DIY Christmas project for both beginners and advanced makers. Assemble and program the extra-large figurine to make its LEDs shine in all the colours of the rainbow!
This educational and fun kit combines soldering and programming skills in one XL-sized project. First, it requires soldering simple components onto the copper plated circuit board. These components include fancy RGB LEDs that have a special diffused effect. Once the soldering work is finished, you can program the colours and light effects of the different LEDs thanks to the onboard Arduino Nano Every. The Arduino will be pre-programmed with some basic LED effects, so your kit will work once you power it with the included adaptor. Alternatively, you can write your own code based on the available example code.
The downloads tab of this product page contains the example code and full manual.
You can also add different add-ons to the printed circuit board of this project. For example, add an OLED screen to display messages or program it to countdown the days until Christmas! Or add an IoT Tuya chip so your project can communicate with your smartphone. You can even add a sound microphone, motion sensor or light sensor.
Enjoy the bright RGB LEDs on the Poly Reindeer XL, the cute Poly Bear XL or the Poly Bunny XL. More figurines coming soon!
Please note, this kit does not include a soldering iron, soldering tin, pliers or a soldering mat. All these tools are available on our site!
