Thames & Kosmos Robotics: Smart Machines - Megean

Robotics is a vast, thrilling, and sometimes overwhelming interdisciplinary field involving physics, engineering, and computer science. This kit gives kids a simple, fun, and customizable introduction to robotics that lets them build eight motorized machines controlled by programs and an ultrasound sensor. Kids code the programs using an easy, visual programming app on a tablet or smartphone, which connects to the robot models via a wireless Bluetooth connection. Using the app interface, you can program the robots you build to behave based on the feedback coming from the ultrasound sensor. FeaturesA full-color, 64-page step-by-step illustrated manual helps kids assemble all of the models and teaches them about robotics in the real world.After you have learned how the technology works, you can build and program your own robots using the kits 230 building piecesThe visual programming language allows you to command the robots motors to move at different times, different power levels, in different directions, and in response to the data from the sensor.DescriptionRobotics is a vast, thrilling, and sometimes overwhelming interdisciplinary field involving physics, engineering, and computer science.
