Function Description
mBot is a robotic toy for kids.
It centers around an Arduino circuit board, a popular open-source electronics platform, and a mostly blank slate for kids to work with. It incorporates several sensor modules, including a light sensor, an IR receiver, an ultrasonic sensor, and a line-following sensor.
This means that right from the start, your child can create numerous programs for collision detection, object avoidance and line following, or just play with it using the included infrared remote control.
Another great thing is that the robot parts are Lego compatible, so you can integrate Lego parts into your projects or even get your little Lego guy on board.
battery
mBot uses four AA batteries (sold separately).
For all ages
According to Makeblock, mBot is suitable for children aged 8 and above.
It really depends on your child's technical ability and comfort with electronics and mechanical devices, but we don't think children over 10 years old will have much of a problem.
Building mBot
Overall, assembling the mBot took about 15 minutes and was not difficult.
The kit comes with its own screwdriver and requires no soldering or complicated electronics work.
That said, assembling mBot requires screwing, attaching parts, and all sorts of tinkering. There are modules that can be accidentally damaged and screws that can get lost, so parental supervision is recommended.
If you prefer to use a tablet or smartphone, you can use the Makeblock app, which turns your mobile device into a touchscreen controller that communicates with the robot (the new mBot robot) via Bluetooth, allowing you to physically draw the path for mBot to follow.
