Description

Build eight different motorized robots, then program how they move and respond to their surroundings using a visual coding app. A Bluetooth connection sends programs from a compatible smartphone or tablet to the models, while an ultrasonic sensor detects nearby objects using reflected sound waves. Program a walking humanoid robot to avoid obstacles, make a stag beetle move and operate its pincers in response to objects, or trigger a crocodile’s jaws and tail based on what its sensor detects. A 64-page illustrated manual guides the builds and introduces robotics concepts and real-world applications.
