Welcome to one of the largest selections of robot kits on the internet!
Building a robot from a kit is one of the best ways to get involved with
robotics. Kits are also fun and educational. Our kits range from the
very simple Weasel and RocKit to
the moderately simple Robotic Arm and the more advanced
Robosapien. Many of these kits are
available in soldering and non-soldering versions!
The Ladybug Robot moves with its six legs and makes use of infrared emitting diodes as its eyes to avoid obstacles along its path. Ladybug automatically makes a turn the moment it detects an object in its path. It continues to move forward again when no obstacle is in the way. Specifications:

Specifications:
* Avoider mode - In this mode, on-board sensors help Tribotz to avoid obstacles. * Sound mode - Sounds dictate the direction of movement in this mode, as Tribotz changes direction in response to sound impulses. * Line Tracer mode - Sensors enable the robot to follow a line drawn by a felt-tipped pen.
The TriBotz will react to sound impulses and objects in its way. It will
reverse away from a sound or obstruction and then move forward. Make a path
with a black felt-tip marker or black tape and
watch how infrared sensors allow the TriBotz to make corrections.
This kit contains wonderful instructions and
educational background information on each component.
Hydrazoid is an ideal introduction for someone wanting to investigate the fascinating world of robots and intelligent machines. This kit introduces the fundamentals of sensor technology and shows how sensors, electronic circuit boards, and motors can be combined with carefully designed mechanical gears and shafts to produce a robot that walks and responds to sounds. Clap your hands and watch Hydrazoid walk and then stop. How does it do that? By assembling the robot you will find out what the different components in your robot do and how they work together to generate its behavior. You will also be introduced to basic electronics and mechanical design. When you have built and mastered the Hydrazoid, you will be ready to move on towards the more advanced robots that are used for research. Have fun! Using only basic hand tools assemble this robot kit for a fun learning experience. LEDs and illuminated fiber optic antennas give the Hydrazoid a cool alien appearance. You'll feel like an engineer when you're done. Size: 7 inches tall x 6 inches long.
The kit includes all the parts you need to put it together, including two pre-soldered circuit boards, two DC motors, and high-quality, durable plastic parts that screw together nicely, and a large front shell with a decidedly extraterrestrial look.
Because the printed circuit boards are pre-assembled, putting the Antoid
together is largely a mechanical project. All you will need are a small
Phillips screwdriver and wire cutters. The instructions are easy to
understand.
This robot is more than just fun. Assembling, building, and following instructions help develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. Because it's programmable, one has to plan ahead, think systematically and logically, and develop problem-solving skills. Kranius will challenge you to think creatively. The optional computer interface allows for dual
(computer and manual) control of the Kranius. It features
programming, saving, editing, and downloading capabilities using your
USB port. Operating System: Windows XP or VISTA
Jungle Robot is a mysterious robot. One day, you may look up and catch a glimpse of Jungle Robot crossing hand-over-hand high across a string extended from tree to tree in the jungle mist. Another day, you can catch him walking through the fallen leaves on the ground. A microphone and printed circuit board controls your multi-function (walking or climbing) friend. When you think Jungle Robot is asleep, just cry Wake Up! Your robot will immediately start climbing or walking and wait for another command. Jungle Robot is an excellent beginners robot. This robot kit can teach the basic principles of robotic sensing and locomotion. It features a pre-assembled printed circuit board, hardware, and mechanical drive system that can be handled by almost anyone from age 10 and up. Only basic hand tools are required for assembly.
Appropriate for ages 10 and up, RocKit Robot is an intelligent robot with a touch/sound sensor. If it comes in contact with an object or hears a loud noise (such as hands clapping), RocKit Robot automatically reverses, then turns before embarking on a new course. RocKit Robot is lots of fun from the moment it arrives. Requiring only basic hand tools, it includes step-by-step instructions, pre-assembled printed circuit board, condenser microphone, and an easy-to-assemble mechanical drive system. It's an ideal gift for the educator, hobbyist or budding scientist. Available in soldering and non-soldering versions. The Institute for Childhood Resources has selected the RocKIT robot kit as a "Top Ten Creative Products" winner and "100 Best Children's Products" winner!
Quick and easy to assemble, this is a beginner robot kit that makes a great entrant for robotic competitions, robotic workshops, after-school programs, special events, gifts, science enrichment camps, and classroom activities. Weasel has been selected by the Children's Institute for Childhood Resources as one of the "100 Best Children's Products" and "10 Best Software/High Tech Products" for 2003. Requires two AA batteries (not included).
When assembled, this robot uses a phototransistor to sense changes in light (such as turning on a lamp) and a condenser microphone to sense changes in sound (such as clapping). It converts those stimuli into electronic signals to power a motor. The sensitivity of the sensors is adjustable. Specifications: Movement: 4 legs powered by crankshafts. Sensors: sound and light. Power Source: "AA" x 1 (not included). Size: 5" tall X 4" diameter. Power: About 210mA.
Easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions allow you to build this exciting interactive robot. The Soccer Jr. Robot Kit has six operational legs, a retrieving and kicking mechanism, and a wired controller to activate movement and ball control. It runs forward, backward, turns left or right, and executes 360-degree turns. It will even help develop your hand/eye coordination skills. Play games, tournaments, and surprise friends with great moves. Order two for great one-on-one soccer action! After you have perfected your shooting skills you may want to learn more about robots. Our highly acclaimed set of instructions allow you to explore robotics. Topics include: Discover the History of Robots; Mechanism of three motor drive systems; Mechanism of legged drive system; and Investigate Wired Remote Control Systems. No soldering required.
Hyper Line Tracker follows a course of your own design! Make a path with a black felt marker or black tape and watch how light sensors enable the robot's motors to make course corrections. By using a light emitter, light sensor circuitry, and tracking memory, it demonstrates how robots "see" a pathway. Specifications: Movement: 2 wheels driven by 2 DC motors. Control: LED/photo transistor, tracking memory. Power Source: "AA" x 4 each (not included). Size: H4.3" x L6.1" x W6.3". Power Consumption: (circuit) 60mA, (mechanical) 300mA. Available in soldering and non-soldering versions.
Specifications: Movement: 3 legs on each side powered by crank shafts, 2 DC motors. Power: "AA" battery x 2 each, 9v x 1 each (not included). Control: infrared/photo transistor. Size: H4.3" x L5.5" x W3.9". Available in soldering and non-soldering versions.
