Tamiya 71201 Programming Craft Series 01 Crawler Type Microcomputer Robot Kit: Includes a BBC micro:bit computer
This Tamiya Programming Craft Series 01 kit is perfect for a parent or educator introducing a child aged 12 and up to robotics and coding. It turns a typical STEM project into a hands-on adventure where kids build and program a crawler robot to navigate and avoid obstacles on its own.
You get a BBC micro:bit computer included, so you can start coding right away on your computer. The ultrasonic sensor lets the robot sense its surroundings, making it feel alive as it moves. Programming the two motors is straightforward, allowing for custom behaviors that teach real problem-solving skills. This kit goes beyond just building—it fosters creativity and logical thinking in a fun, engaging way.
