MR-DRIVE

The Flashlight Cubelet emits a focused beam of light from a powerful white LED. The light becomes brighter with higher input values, and is off wit...

MR-FLASHLIGHT

The Inverse Cubelet calculates a value that is the opposite of the values it receives. Specifically, the Inverse Cubelet will (weighted) average it...

MR-INVERSE

The Knob Cubelet has a potentiometer embedded in one of its faces. It outputs a 0 when turned fully counterclockwise, and a 1 when turned clockwise...

MR-KNOB

The Maximum Cubelet accepts many different inputs but only passes along the one with the greatest value. With a maximum block, you could easily bui...

MR-MAX

The Minimum Cubelet can accept any amount of data, but only outputs the smallest value that it receives. It can be handy for creating an on-off swi...

MB-MIN

The Passive Cubelet is a basic building block. It carries power and data from its neighbors, but it basically acts like a smart brick. It doesn’t m...

MR-PASSIVE

The Rotate Cubelet allows one face to spin at a rate corresponding to the block’s input values.Cubelets are magnetic blocks that can be snapped tog...

MR-ROTATE

The Speaker Cubelet contains a small speaker and an amplifier that will chirp according to the block’s data value.Cubelets are magnetic blocks that...

MR-SPEAKER

The Temperature Cubelet contains a tiny thermometer (actually, a thermistor) that detects temperature. It’s calibrated to output a 0 in freezing co...

MR-TEMP

Emergence is the science of how complex behaviors can arise from lots of smaller, simpler interactions. Cubelets harvest the awesome power of emerg...
