wood, metal, and cardboard
are materials that we use to
build things. With the cloudBit,
we’ve made the Internet into a
concrete material that you can
incorporate into any creation.
The Internet of Things is now
open and accessible to you.

internet-connected devices to
improve your home, your life, &
change the world. Happy Making!
