Get into DIY home electronics

AgIC
AgIC is a startup founded by Tokyo University graduates who aim to revolutionize the world of electronics by making it accessible to everyone. And it looks like the group has already made an impact — AgIC's project on Kickstarter successfully raised almost $80,000 in a matter of two months, far exceeding its initial goal of $30,000.

The Kickstarter project offered DIY circuit-printer kits, conductive-ink pens and special paper — all you need to be able to print or draw circuit boards at home. Designed to be an easy way for designers to test circuits as well as a fun way to introduce kids to electronics, the ink used in the pens and printers contains conductive silver nanoparticles, so there's no need for breadboard bases or wires.
