The play computer Logikus was brought out 1968 by the cosmos teaching material publishing house, Stuttgart. With the "computer" logic circuits (AND, OR, NOT) could be the Schaltschieber and keys in the equipment steered then the 10 small lamps according to this programming on a programming field. In the instruction book (author Rolf Lohberg) and in the continuation volume "we were presented from the simple shining volume to the set theory, switching algebra and boolean algebra to program to far" many programming examples, which described the bases of the computer engineering. The renouncement of any electronic construction units, which functionality exclusively over slide switches and small lamps reached, is remarkable.
The equipment obtains still respectable prices on (on-line) auctions after more than 30 years. Occasionally logic US experimentation boxes also ungebaute are offered when new as well as the auxiliary packing with that to above mentioned continuation volume. In the USA at that time a licensed variant under the designation appeared "LOGIX". The Logikus build-similar, however quite independent equipment from GDR production with the name "PIKO dat" belongs under computer collecting tanks to the most looked for rare pieces.
An extensive Website to the Logikus and its relatives is under http://www.logikus.info; from there even a fully functional logic US simulator can be downloaded.
