Description

  • This kit gives kids a simple, fun, and customizable introduction to robotics that lets them build eight motorized machines.
  • Requires a tablet or smartphone
  • Using the app interface, you can program the robots you build to behave based on the feedback coming from the ultrasound sensor.
  • A 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.
  • The ultrasonic sensor works on the same principle as Sonar.

Customer Reviews

great kitmy daughter, 9, loves this set. there are two problems to be aware of -1. her fingers are not strong enough to snap the pieces together, so she needs an adult's help. and2. when she built the catapult she noticed that when it swings down, it is unsteady and the sensor picks up the floor. she says the design is flawed, and so she built supports along the side and under to keep it more stable.as a parent, i can think of one negative, in the app on the tablet, there is not a good explanation of what the arrows and categories mean. my husband had to look on the internet for a booklet to explain what the app features didnow that you know those things, i would say those aren't such bad things and the overall enjoyment from building and using the robots have far outweighed the negatives. the pieces are well made, options are plenty, and having the app at all is very handy. 5so easy to get stuck with almost a hundred bulksIf you really buy this and made it by yourself, are there any one find it is not work well on all the cranks, so easy to get stuck with almost a hundred bulks? Who will switch lego experience to this products? All the good comments are saying they send it to their grandson.I tried three models, not even one crank motion worked properly. I returned. Not suggested, and stay on hexbug or lego. 1Good concept, App will not stay connected.Bought this for my grandson, he was excited about it. First robot was a success, now the app will not stay connected and when it is, the motors don't function correctly. Check batteries, good, tried a different android device, no change. Without the app, it is very expensive Lego Set, you cannot control it or have it do anything. 3Definitely for older-ranged kidsDifficult to build, difficult to use the app. A real disappointment. My son is 9 and this was way above his level. Even fitting some of the pieces together required more strength than a 9 yr old. The instructions were also way out of his reach. I think if this was labeled appropriately for ages, it would be more like 12 years old and up. I think if it was an appropriately aged child, they would be challenged, but able to do it. 2Four StarsKids liked it but dad did most of the building. 4app doesn't support below iOS 10.3I'd love to give this a better review. The parts seem quite sturdy and the instructions are well laid out for my 9 year old to follow the problem and the reason for the 3 star is the iOS app states it supports 8.0+ in the manual and in the item description. See the attached image it requires 10.3+ I bought this kit because it supported her old iPad. I'm waiting on the vendors response. I'd really hate to send this back because the kiddo loves it. 3Great Customer Service!We received this product last night and began to build it this morning. Within 30 minutes of playing with it, one of the two wheel motors failed, only one motor would work in both forward and reverse. We contacted the Thames & Kosmos customer service and described how we troubleshot the problem and how we came to the conclusion that the motor was indeed bad. I didn't think I would hear anything back from this company due to the holiday season, I was wrong. Within 60 minutes of posting on their site, we got a reply back from the manufacturer. They stated that they would send out a replacement motor to us at no charge, which is great. I was really impressed with their response time!My kids really love the product, and were able to change the position of the sensors to allow the robot to still use the sensors but in the reverse direction. It is not ideal, but at least they can play with it. The app that you use to program the robot is amazing, my kids were able quickly navigate the system and put their robot into action.Aside from the motor failing so quickly, I wish the robot could move a little quicker. We are using it on hardwood floors and it is still slow. We have used the Dash Robot system in the past, and this little guy is way quicker.Overall its a good product, we look forward to maximizing the potential of our new robot. 4Gave to my 13 year old grandson for his birthday ...Gave to my 13 year old grandson for his birthday. He loves it & even made his own creation after he followed the included instructions. Was challenging enough for him! 5How few actual building pieces there are compared to the amount of connectorsThe kit is definitely good for learning about how different components work together for building robots that do specific tasks. The description is a tad deceptive (very slightly) in the amount of pieces. There are definitely 230 pieces in the kit...most of them, however, are the tiny connectors used to attach the pieces together. In all, the struts and the supports, and the motors are nice, but the kit is most definitely overpriced for what you actually get to build and work with. The instructiin book has very good images but only from one angle, and can be difficult for younger builders. I would range the actual ages of the kit at 10-12. It is definitely above the attention to detail an 8 yr old has, and would be boring for a 13/14 yr old. 3My grandson loved it. Built a responsive robot immediately but had ...My grandson loved it. Built a responsive robot immediately but had to go back and read directions to get better functioning. Doesn't work well on carpet. To our surprise the remote controller works through the sliding glass door and the robot could travel down the sidewalk while we stayed in the warm apartment! 5
