Gigo Robotics Workshop Item Code 1409
Learn to code with the ultimate robotics workshop
An intuitive, state-of-the-art building and robotics kit for home and school use. Build and program robots with this complete robotics engineering system. With the award-winning micro:bit board (not included), a tiny computer with a built-in array of 25 LEDs and on-board sensors that can measure light, temperature, magnetism, movement, and sound. Robotics Workshop also includes two powerful 50X planetary gearboxes, a tactical servo motor, one durable ultrasonic sensors, and a smart controller that brings them all together. With hundreds of snap-together building pieces, you can assemble 14 different robots. The versatile parts also allow you to make robots according to your own designs, and program your robots to bring them to life!
This fun robotics curriculum starts out with instructions for getting to building simple robots, teaching you how the sensors can be used to control the robots. Build an ultrasonic robot that can avoid obstacles, a bionic bot, a drum machine, an awesome robotic arm, and so much more.
Add code to bring your robots to life. Anyone can learn to code using the free web or tablet-based app MakeCode, which loads your code directly onto the micro:bit. Get started with easy-to-understand visual block-based coding, and then stretch yourself to learn the most relevant coding languages of the tech industry: Python and JavaScript. Uploading code to your micro:bit is quick and easy. Use the Micro-USB cable (not included) from a desktop or wirelessly connect to the smart controller using a Bluetooth Low Energy connection.
After you have mastered all of the robotic models in the instructions, you will have the tools and knowledge you need to go on and build and program your own amazing robotic creations.
A 36-page full-color manual and tons of online resources feature step-by-step illustrated building instructions and instructions explaining how to program and operate the robot models.
