P-Bit is a compact, ESP32-based mini computer with built-in environmental sensors and full Crowtail compatibility. Perfect for STEAM education, prototyping, and IoT projects. Includes colour display, RGB LEDs, sound, and intuitive rotary control.
The P-Bit is a powerful, compact environmental mini-computer designed for hands-on learning, rapid prototyping, and STEAM education.
Built around the ESP32, it integrates multiple sensors, RGB LEDs, a rotary encoder, a buzzer, and a vivid 1.8" TFT screen — all in a transparent 2 mm acrylic enclosure, ready to use or customise.
Ready-to-use and fully assembled
Powered by a dual-core ESP32 microcontroller
Includes built-in LDR, DHT11, and MEMS microphone
Bright 1.8" TFT colour display (128x160 resolution)
Interactive control via rotary encoder
Visual & audio feedback with 3 RGB LEDs and piezo buzzer
Crowtail-compatible: 3 I2C + 3 GPIO ports
Arduino IDE programmable
Whether you're a maker, a student, or an educator, the P-Bit offers a seamless experience from day one.
It runs on 4x AAA batteries or via USB-C (5 V) and comes with a pre-installed firmware that allows immediate interaction with the built-in sensors.
The P-Bit is fully compatible with Elecrow’s Crowtail ecosystem, enabling effortless plug-and-play expansion.
With 3 I2C ports (yellow) and 3 GPIO ports (black, red, blue), you can connect a wide variety of Crowtail modules like:
CO₂ and air quality sensors
Turbidity and TDS sensors
Motors, pumps, LEDs and more
Once you're ready to customise or scale your project, the P-Bit becomes a versatile platform for:
Environmental data logging
IoT prototypes
STEAM workshops and classes
Custom interactive installations
