Southend Tech - Minimu Glove Camp
Building on the success of the Essex Steamettes wearable tech course for girls Southend Tech are running a 6 week online Summer Camp on gesture based wearable tech which is open to all.
The online sessions are free to attend for all but you will require a Micro:bit and MiniMu glove to take part. The camp will deliver 10 lessons with accompanying ezines using the MiniMu glove kit designed by MiMu and Pimoroni.
Kitronik sells the Micro:bit kit for £15 or libraries lend Micro:bits for free. This link has details on how to buy one from Pimoroni.
