UNLOCK A WORLD OF INVENTION.
DESIGN. CODE. MAKE.
pi-top [4] is a new game-changing, programmable computing device that combines digital making, coding and practical projects. With pi-top [4], educators, students and inventors get to design, code and make anything they can imagine using one simple, easy-to-use system. From beginner to superuser, pi-top powers your projects and brings learning into the real world.
WHAT WILL YOU MAKE?
pi-top [4] is an awesome platform for invention and tackling real-world challenges. Attach it to a drone or weather balloon for a bird’s eye view, connect moisture sensors to record environmental changes, wear it to measure movement and motion and use it to control everything from robotic vehicles to stage lights. What you invent is entirely up to you.
CONNECT [4].
You can easily connect pi-top [4] to your existing Windows, Apple and Chromebook computers, making deploying code and retrieving results easy. Third-party products like LEGO and Arduino are also supported; and with Raspberry Pi GPIO connectivity as standard, you have instant access to thousands of free projects, components and resources.
ACCESS A WORLD OF APPS.
Every pi-top [4] comes with our latest operating system, pi-topOS SIRIUS. Built on the rock-solid foundations of Raspbian (Buster), it’s packed with features and sports a clean, crisp look and feel.
There's a whole range of apps; from Scratch 3 and Mu for coding to GIMP for image editing and Sonic Pi for making music. There’s even access to cool games like Minecraft Raspberry Pi edition.
Education Product Description
Give your students skills for the world of tomorrow.
pi-top’s mission is to inspire a generation of makers by giving students STEAM-related hard skills (e.g. coding and circuitry) and in-demand soft skills (e.g. communication, critical thinking and problem-solving) that they will need in a rapidly changing world.
One-stop for STEAM.
pi-top [4] brings STEAM into the classroom. Students can start making projects such as a smart house system, a reversing sensor for a vehicle, electronic systems, a robot, a drone or a weather station!
Great software for making.
With an intuitive interface, built-in Search Portal, and a full suite of applications, our award-winning OS makes designing, coding and making easy.
