What is the Cricket?

The Cricket is a tiny computer, that you can program using Logo.

You can control motors and lights with the Cricket.

The Cricket can receive information from sensors, like touch sensors and light sensors.

Crickets can “talk” to each other, sending messages with infrared (IR) light.

People have used Crickets to build little robots, animated rocking horses, automatic gift boxes, and other personal animated toys.

People have used Crickets to collect a bunch of temperature readings and look at them later.

Crickets were developed at a major research university and now they are available to the public.
