The Code Kit is an Arduino system in a box. It comes with a small rechargeable battery that can power an Arduino-based CodeBit with three inputs and three outputs.

The Adafruit Gemma measures just 1 inch in size and is powered by an ATtiny85 and programmable with an Arduino IDE over USB, allowing you to create those wearable projects of the future.
