 <note important>Electronic Brick is now discontinued. It's not possible to buy them anymore.</note>
-To be able to use Electronic Brick sensors, you can use the Phidget Interface Kit 8/8/8 to connect the sensors to. Only 10 pins connectors device won't be able to be used (like the LCD one).
+To be able to use Electronic Brick sensors, you have different way to address them.
+{{:public_namespace:ebrick_sensors.jpg?400|}}
+===== Using GrovePi shield =====
+You can connect Electronic Brick sensors to the GrovePi. You can read the following page to [[raspberry-grove|Install Groove Pi on Raspberry Pi]].
+Use the following [[http://www.seeedstudio.com/depot/Electronic-brick-buckled-3-pin-to-Grove-4-pin-converter-cable-5-PCs-pack-p-729.html?cPath=73|converter cable]] to be able to connect the Electronic Brick 3 pin connector to the Grove 4 pin.
+Just have to play with them now. You can use all sensors (led, rotation, button, tilt, buzzer, ...)
+===== Using Phidget InterfaceKit =====
+You can read the following page to [[raspberry-phidget|Install Phidgets on Raspberry Pi]].
+You can use the Phidget Interface Kit 8/8/8 to connect the sensors to. You will be able to use the following sensors directly:
+  * Rotation sensor
+  * Temperature sensor
+  * Tilt switch
+  * Big button
+The first two ones have equivalent components in Phidget kit, but the two last ones are interesting to use.
+===== Using Raspberry Pi Arduino shield add-on =====
+<note warning>This last solution is not yet tested, but we have all the component to test it as soon as possible.
+</note>
+If you want to use the Electronic Brick shield, you will need the Raspberry Arduino Shield Add-on to connect any Arduino shield to the Raspberry. With that solution, you should be able to use the LCD 1602 component that uses a 10 pin connector.
