You also get a ton of options for hooking up sensors and other gubbins - there's two Qw/ST connectors (and an unpopulated Breakout Garden slot) for attaching breakouts, three ADC pins for analog sensors, photoresistors and such, and three spare digital GPIO you could use for LEDs, buttons or digital sensors. Drive a couple of fancy motors with encoders attached? Yep! Add up to six servos? Sure? Attach a little speaker so you can make noise? No problem! It's also got a battery connector so you can power your inventions from AA/AAA or LiPo batteries and carry your miniature automaton/animated top hat/treasure chest that growls at your enemies around with you untethered. Inventor 2040 is a multi-talented board that does (almost) everything you might want a robot, prop or other mechanical thing to do. After his death, his notebooks were hidden away, scattered, or lost, and his wonderful ideas were forgotten.Ĭenturies passed before other inventors came up with similar ideas and brought them to practical use.An all-in-one board for making battery powered contraptions that can move, (optionally) make noise, and talk to the internet! Though his notes suggest that he wished to organize and publish his ideas, he died before he could accomplish this important goal. But it seems the very few of these were ever built and tested during his life.
Leonardo described and sketched ideas for many inventions hundreds of years ahead of their time. Five hundred years after they were put on paper, many of his sketches can easily be used as blueprints to create perfect working models. His talents as an illustrator allowed him to draw his mechanical ideas with exceptional clarity. Leonardo set out to write the first systematic explanations of how machines work and how the elements of machines can be combined.
By studying them he gained practical knowledge about their design and structure. As an apprentice in the studio of the artist Verrocchio, Leonardo observed and used a variety of machines. Some of his earliest sketches clearly show how various machine parts worked.
Leonardo's fascination with machines probably began during his boyhood.
