Mbot Open Source Robot Building Education Robot Kits

Makeblock mBot Blue (Bluetooth Version)New Features in mBlock:based on Scratch 2.0, developed by MIT Media Lab, nice interface and easy for everyone.Free & source code: the software is free and support Window & Mac systems. We will also open the source code later.Supports wireless communication: you can use Bluetooth communicate with mBot. And download the program wirelessly is supported.Supports standard Arduino boards, like Arduino Uno, Lenardo boards, Makeblock mCore(based on Arduino Uno) and etc.With open communication protocols and source code, it is easy to add new support for new hardware.Easy to use: No additional helper app. The easiest way to program your Arduino and robots.Arduino mode: perfect for every beginner to switch from graphical programming to text-based programming.See more improvements we made for easy teaching and learning from BELOW.

Description:

Makeblock is anopen sourceconstruction platform to turn ideas into success.

mBot is a low cost, easy-to-run robot kit for kids to get hands-on experience about graphical programming, electronics, robotics.
It is an all-in-one solution for robotics learning and designed for STEM education. Cute shape with easy assembly is our goal.
mBot contains only about 45 pieces in total, so it is easy to have a sense of achievement for kids to assemble in 10 mins quickly.

How can mbot helps kids?

Graphical programming inspired by Scratch 2.0

Since Scratch2.0 is very popular in teachers and students as a graphical programming software,
it has almost been proved to be the most easy-to-use graphical programming tool.
So based on Scratch 2.0, we develop a new software mBlock to use Scratch-style coding to program Arduino and robots.
Please feel free to contact us to download.

Open source platform, Continuous learning

Arduino is an open-source electronic prototyping platform used by people in the global world to start a project quickly.
It has been proved to be very expandable and suitable for beginners.
So we designed mBot's electronics based on Arduino platform , which is easy for kids to use and extend , and bring their every idea to life.
With intuitional color labels and easy-to-use RJ25 connectors,
the board could get wired within a few seconds, so students could get more time to focus on creating all kinds of interactive stories and projects.

Makeblock MBot Upgrated Version Mbot V1.1

Features:

. Aluminum extrusion, anodized surface
. Mbot is an all-in-one solution for robotics learning and designed for STEM education
. Most enjoyable and funny tool for learning programming
. For children and adult
. Promote creativity

What is mBot?

mBot is an all-in-one solution to enjoy the hands-on experience of programming, electronics,
and robotics. Working with mBlock inspired by Scratch 2.0, connecting with computers or smart
devices via Bluetooth or 2.4G (by different version), this easy-to-assemble mBot provides
infinite possibilities for you to learn STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics).

What's New? Children Safeguard

Compared to the previous verison, mBot V1.1 comes with a casing specially designed for
protecting main control board. Meanwhile, the casing is atomized to safeguard children's
eyes from the glare of the onboard LED.

What's New? Better Auxiliary Wheel

The ball omni-directional wheel of previous version is replaced by a mini nylon caster
wheel that performs better when moving to any direction and dramatically reduces the little
clack sound caused by a steel ball.

Contracted But Not Simple

Contains 38 assembly parts that can be assembled in 10 minutes and color-labeled RJ25
ports for convenient wiring, making sure more time can be spent on programming and creativity.

Graphical Programming

Drag-and-drop graphical programming software mBlock developed based on Scratch 2.0
provides a quick way to learn programming, control the robot, and realize multiple functions from the robot.

Fun, and Fun

mBot is all about fun and creativity. It comes with various basic pre-assembled options,
including obstacle-avoidance car, line-following vehicle, remote control car, and can be
used in multiple games like balloon bursting game, soccer playing, sumo, and etc.

Infinite Extensibility

The mechanical body of the mBot is compatible with Makeblock platform and most of parts,
while the electronic parts of it is developed based on the Arduino open source ecosystem.
This makes sure that the mBot has infinite extensibility, using any mechanical parts and
electronic modules you need to turn it into your "dream robot".

Unique Curriculum System

To help teachers, parents, or children get started easier and faster, you will also find
that we provide online manuals and two online courses that will be updated regularly.
These online tutorials are developed and maintained by teachers, especially scratch
teachers, at home and abroad.

Note:

mBot V1.1 - STEM Educational Robot Kit come with 1 pc IR remote control as a gift.
The default program of mBot has been optimized regarding this change. Users can check whether mBot
is functioning using the onboard button.
