Purchase Table for the Maker100-Curriculum

Based on 30 students per computer lab


Note: This is an estimate of products to purchase and may not work perfectly together. Your purchasing department may make suggestions for cheaper products. Be Careful as getting items to work together is part of the problems of robotics. This list is to help beginners, purchasing one of each item to test it would make a lot of sense. this list comes with no guarantee in any way.
