MakeBlock mBot is a low-cost and easy-to-use robot kit designed for children to learn programming. It can be easily programmed using a simple block-based programming logic, and you can add additional hardware to it, limited only by your imagination.
The robot will come to you disassembled. You can easily assemble it by combining the 40 pieces included in the set to make your robot ready for use.
mBot is ready to perform all the functions you would expect from a mobile robot, thanks to its built-in ultrasonic obstacle sensor, line sensor, and wireless communication module. You can easily add other sensors/modules thanks to the mCore board. The sensors eliminate problems like reverse connections with RJ45-type sockets, commonly used in phones. You can easily attach Lego parts to the robot using compatible connections on the mCore board. Additionally, the robot is entirely open-source and supports Arduino, so you can do advanced programming using the Arduino IDE if you wish.
You can use the Scratch-based mBlock program, which is one of the graphical block programming environments developed for children to learn programming without getting bored, either from your computer or your smartphone/tablet. Moreover, there is a training program that will guide you from easy to more complex programming when you want to program the robot from your smart devices.
