Piper Make Motion Ball

 

PLEASE NOTE: Motion Ball is an add-on and REQUIRES a Piper Make Base Station with the Raspberry Pi Pico to get started (sold separately). 

 

Highlights:

The Motion Ball is a widget of the Piper Make Physics Expedition Kit (Motion), and an incredible way to learn about motion in three dimensions – by tossing a ball! The Motion Ball is an add-on and REQUIRES a Piper Make Starter Kit with the Raspberry Pi Pico to get started (sold separately).

Use the included blueprint to assemble your Motion Ball, complete with a gyroscopic accelerometer in the center and then learn to write code that will plot the motion along the three axes in real time on Piper Make. As you learn to play Marsball with Piperbot in our storyline (the Martian take on baseball), you’ll learn how spin can relate to speed – an incredibly valuable kinetics lesson for not only our future physicists but also any athlete/technologists out there!
