MakerBuddy IoT Kit, Open Source STEM and IoT Learning Hardware

MakerBuddy IoT Kit is an open source STEM and IoT learning platform designed to simplify electronics, programming and automation for students, educators and makers. The goal of this project is to remove common barriers such as complex wiring, firmware flashing and steep learning curves, allowing users to start building functional projects quickly.

The PCB design integrates a microcontroller with ready to use connectors for popular sensors and modules including LEDs, RGB LED, buzzer, push button, potentiometer, temperature sensors and other expansion ports. The board is optimized for classroom use, workshops and self learning, focusing on durability, safety and ease of assembly. All routing, footprints and component placement are designed to support stable performance while keeping manufacturing cost affordable.

This project is ideal for schools, maker spaces, IoT training programs and hobbyists who want a reliable development board for hands on experimentation. The Gerber files shared here are intended for fabrication, prototyping and community driven improvements. Users are encouraged to build, modify and expand MakerBuddy for educational, research and commercial applications.
