ArTeC Robotist Sensor Light

ArTeC Robotist Sensor Light is a universal electronic construction kit that includes over 70 elements for individual assembly of a limitless amount of robots with a wide range of abilities. You can build such light-emitting devices as a robot, a vehicle, a tower, and a plane. The Robotist Sensor Light is great for STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) related education. Students will enjoy building programmable robots.

Usage Guidelines

This kit is great for hands-on educational experimenting and technical demonstrations. It is equipped with Studuino, an analog of Arduino open-source prototyping platform. All light and sound devices can be programmed to respond to the touch sensor. You can program LED illumination any way you like and create melodies using the buzzer. Use a touch sensor to make a light with a switch. Includes full instructions with information for downloading the robot software (requires Windows operating system).
