A micro bit robot kit includes hundreds of durable, reusable components — more than 100 snap‑together building pieces — plus motors, connectors, and structural parts that let you build motorized robots and custom designs.
Micro bit robot kits are designed for children, generally recommended for ages 8 and up, with an educational focus on science and introductory robotics engineering for young learners.
Kits include a 32‑page full‑color manual plus extensive online resources. The online materials provide step‑by‑step illustrated building instructions and curriculum support to guide lessons and projects.
The kit provides instructions to build 14 simple motorized robot models and also supplies parts and sensors to support creating your own custom robot designs.
The kits use an open‑source web and app‑based coding platform that starts with visual block‑based programming and can be expanded to text languages such as Python and JavaScript.
Robots are programmed via an open‑source, web‑ and app‑based coding platform that supports block coding and text languages; the platform runs in a browser or in mobile/desktop apps on tablets and PCs.
The kit includes a small programmable microcontroller that acts as the robot's brain. Users write and upload code to that controller using the kit's web‑ or app‑based coding platform to control motors, sensors, and behaviors.
