\"\"<\/p>\n

The new issue of The MagPi (number 64)<\/a> seeks to be an\u00a0electronics starter guide<\/strong> with explanation of the normal components and some simple projects to get you going. They even recommend the CamJam EduKits<\/a>\u00a0as a great way to get hold of the components, which is lovely,\u00a0thanks folks!<\/em> Also in the issue is a long tutorial on creating text adventures and a feature on the new Google AIY Projects: Vision kit which you can also read here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Oddly, the AIY kit is currently only pre-orderable from MicroCenter<\/a>, which is very strange as I thought this was a UK-published magazine, but what do I know? Oh, wait, apparently there will be worldwide availability from Spring 2018. That’s all right then.<\/p>\n

You can read the new MagPi for free here<\/a> or order a print copy\/pick it up in newsagents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
