ACCESS:bit for BBC micro:bit

The ACCESS:bit is a bolt-on/clip-on board for the BBC micro:bit that simulates an access barrier. It includes a servo-driven barrier arm, an integrated 3×AAA battery cage with on/off switch, and a buzzer for sound effects. The ACCESS:bit joins the Kitronik family of transportation micro:bit accessories alongside the STOP:bit and LAMP:bit.

Once the micro:bit is fitted, its LED matrix remains fully visible and can display warning signals, stop/go symbols, or act as a light sensor for autonomous barrier actions. The board connects via the supplied M3 countersunk screws or crocodile clips.

Key Features

  • Access Barrier Simulation – Servo-driven barrier arm for realistic movement
  • Integrated Battery Cage – 3×AAA with on/off switch (batteries not included)
  • Built-in Buzzer – Sound effects for barrier open/close actions
  • LED Matrix Visible – micro:bit display remains accessible for signals and symbols
  • MakeCode Extension – Custom Kitronik code blocks available in the MakeCode editor
  • Flexible Connection – Attach via M3 screws or crocodile clips
  • Dimensions – 89 mm (H) × 125 mm (W with barrier extended) × 30 mm (D with servo)
Tip: To add the custom MakeCode blocks, open the MakeCode editor, click the cog icon, select Extensions, and search for "Kitronik". Select the ACCESS:bit tile to add the blocks.

Ideal For

  • Transportation and traffic simulation projects
  • STEM education and classroom activities
  • Combining with STOP:bit and LAMP:bit for larger traffic systems
Note: The BBC micro:bit is not included and is available separately. This kit requires some mechanical assembly.

Package Contents

  • 1× ACCESS:bit board with integrated battery cage
  • 1× 180° servo
  • 1× Access barrier arm
