*Shown here with the Dr.Duino Expansion Pack, Sold Separately. Simple Assembly Required
An ultra compact, yet fully featured electronics learning platform for any Arduino Uno compatible board. You'll be learning at light speed and building super cool projects even faster!
How Does It Work?
A Mini Motherboard
At its heart is a special type of motherboard. It is based on an electronics platform from a company named Arduino. The form factor which you see above is based on the wildly popular Arduino Uno. In the center of the board shown above is whats called a "Microcontroller" which is essentially the brains of the entire board. It's programmed in a very easy to learn language called C.
Who is Arduino?
An Electronics Eco System
Arduino is an Italian based company who single handedly changed the face of how people get started in electronics. ANYONE with a desire to learn about electronics, can make some truly impressive projects in minutes, not weeks, months or even years.
Arduino is a Registered trademark of Arduino AG. Dr.Duino is not affiliated nor endorsed by Arduino AG.
What's A Shield?
Stackable System

Why Learn With Dr.Duino?
Experience The Dr.Duino Difference!
Note- Purple board in photo not included.
VS
The Dr.Duino Pioneer (red outline) which took about 10 seconds to pop on top of the Arduino Uno clone included with the kit. No testing needed, it all just worked. That's a pretty giant difference in both time and frustration!
What Can I Build With It?
Introducing Dr.Duino's Labs
Dr.Duino's labs is built on the core principle that learning should connect theory with real world applications.
When you purchase a Dr.Duino Pioneer Edition, you'll gain immediate access to 5 fun starter projects + 5 Premium which are explained in a simple but fun way.
Starter Projects (INCLUDED)
- Annoy-A-Buddy-Tuck away your Pioneer or Explorer in a coworkers cube, sit back and get ready to laugh. Watch them go crazy looking for where an annoying chirping sound is coming from. BUT! We won't make it easy on them to find, the chirp is at random time intervals, and will only be heard if your Pioneer or Explorer is in a dark place. Starter Project.
- Collision Warning System, thanks to the magic of sonar, this handy piece of code will help you determine how close or far you are from hitting an object!
- Larson Scanner, remember KITT from knight rider or the Cylons from Battlestar Galactica? You'll get the code you need to make your own iconic versions of their cycling lights!
-
Color Gauge, tons of projects need a way to notify the user how much time is left, or how full something is like an oil tank in a visual way. Well, this will do exactly that using high brightness LEDS! You'll be able to see the status of your gauge from clear across the room!
-
Night Lite, thanks to the Pioneers built in LDR sensor, you'll be able to create your very own nite lite perfect for those late night trips to the loo or keeping your little ones scary monsters away at night!
- Water Leak Detector, worried your sink is going to leak or your boiler will flood your basement? Wouldn't it be awesome if you could be alerted the instant water is detected where it shouldn't be? Well... you'll have the perfect tool to do just that! Premium Project.
-
RGB Controller, there's nothing more mesmerizing than being able to control the color and intensity of LED's especially when you can mix RED, GREEN & BLUE together. You'll be able to create up to 16 million color variations and store the values in memory!
-
Light Theramin, a unique twist on an oldie. Shine a little light on to your kit and enjoy the sweet, sweet sound of converting light into beeps and boops! This one is a ton of fun to play with!
- The Perfect Kitchen Timer, wouldn't it be awesome if you could customize a timer for anything you need? But not an ordinary timer, something which ads a bit of lighting effects too! Well, look no further, you'll have the code to do it! Premium Project.
-
You're The Tone Man, play up to 88 different musical notes , turning your pioneer or explorer into an electronic musical keyboard!

INCLUDES 2 Exclusive Bonuses!
Bonus 1 | Includes access to Dr.Duino's Arduino Boot camp. ($59.99 Value FREE)
This is our EXCLUSIVE online learning mini course which includes 9 lessons.
Lesson 1| We start off by introducing what Arduino is followed by what you CAN & CAN’T do with an Arduino Uno.
Lesson 2| We take a tour of what an actual Arduino Uno board is, all of its features, how it’s powered etc.
Lesson 3| Provides real world examples of how the Arduino Uno actually works, explained in a very easy to understand way.
Lesson 4| This is where we start to get our hands dirty and begin actually programming an Arduino Uno using what’s known as the IDE. It’s short for Integrated Developing Environment.
Lesson 5| Serial Monitor! This is where I show you how to figure out what’s going wrong with your code.
Lesson 6| Programming BASICS! In this chapter we review the most commonly used command you need to make incredible projects.
Lesson 7| Programming Examples! Building upon what was learned in Chapter 6, I give you concrete examples of coding.
Lesson 8| Putting It All Together! I call this the “cap stone” project, it is meant to take everything that you have learned in the previous chapters and really drive home how Arduino works via a hands on project. It’s done by providing you with a really awesome code project which teaches you how to make a Morse Code Machine with just a single Arduino Uno!
Lessson9| Learn how to make a realistic flickering flame effect using a single LED.
BONUS 2 | This Special package includes access to a 299 page Arduino E-book
