Robotic Components:

The microbit:
Your robots’ brain, eyes, ears, voice, and more! This pocket-sized circuit board hosts your programmed code and is housed in a sleek yet durable smart controller. Upload code to the micro:bit with the included USB cord or wirelessly via Bluetooth low-energy connection. This mini-computer has a built-in array of 25 LEDs and on-board sensors that measure light, temperature, magnetism, movement, sound, and more.

Ultrasonic Sensor:
Avoid obstacles! The ultrasonic sensor works like a sonar system and helps your robots gauge distances and determine where objects are. Two ultrasonic sensors included.

Servo Motor:
Make precise movements! The precision motor allows your robot to make accurate and powerful movements with complete motor control! One servo motor included.

Direct-Drive Motor:
Drive your robots! The two powerful direct-drive motors bring motion to your robots: Connect the motors to gears, wheels, and other pieces to move your robots in many ways.

Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries:
Robotics Workshop also includes two rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, optimizing the length of use.
