The Make Controller Kit is a fully programmable,open source hardware platform for projects requiring high performance control/feedback, connectivity, and ease of use. It can also be used as an interface to a variety of desktop environments like Max/MSP, Flash, and Processing, Java, Python, Ruby - anything that supports OSC.

Features
The Make Controller is a full-featured microcontroller platform.  It features:

8 analog inputs - 10-bit inputs read voltages from 0-3.3V while protecting the controller from higher voltages.
8 high current digitial outputs - can be configured to drive 8 individual outputs, 4 DC motors, 2 stepper motors, or any combination.
4 standard servo controllers - easily provide external power for driving large loads.
8 position DIP switch - for manual configuration.
USB and Ethernet interfaces - can be used simultaneously.
CAN interface - for networking several boards together.
JTAG port - for on-chip debugging.

The Make Controller communicates with the outside world via OSC (Open Sound Control), which means it can interface easily with many desktop programming environments that also support OSC:
Max/MSP  Flash  Processing  .NET C#  Ruby  Python  Java
and any other environment that supports OSC.

 spent some time with Amy & Ariel from Sparkle Labs, makers of the DIY electronics kit we have in our Maker Shed Store, check it out!

Here's the M4V for iTunes, iPods, iPhones, etc...

Wondering what the deal is with all these electronics projects we post here on MAKE:Blog? Getting familiar with the basics can seem a bit daunting - but it's really not so complex. Here's an affordable kit that'll get your feet wet proper -

DIY Design Electronics Kit - Harness the power of the electron! Create games, toys, and contraptions with these fundamental components. Follow the easy instructions to make a light detector, LED flasher, noisemaker and more! Once you master the basics, you'll be ready to create your own! Everything you need to get started is right in the box, including switches, buttons, diodes, capacitors. transistors and regulators. Learn the amazing concepts of resistance, capacitance, voltage and current with the step-by-step project manual. Soon, you will be the electronics wizard! Great introduction to electronics for all ages.
