DFRobot Maqueen micro:bit Plus V3 18650 Educational Programming Robot Platform

The DFRobot Maqueen Plus V3 is the latest generation of the popular Maqueen series, specifically designed for robotics competitions and educational purposes. With its robust construction, precise motor control, and advanced sensors, it offers numerous opportunities for hands-on learning. The integrated line-tracking system with five sensors can detect intersections and allows for various algorithms with adjustable speed. A matrix laser sensor provides highly accurate distance measurements and obstacle detection at up to 60 Hz. The removable metal motors are equipped with encoders and support PID control for precise angle and distance management. Additionally, the robot features programmable RGB headlights, ambient lighting, and an integrated buzzer for acoustic signals. Thanks to its modular design and numerous GPIO expansions, it is flexible for additional modules.
