Ubtech Jimu TankBot Kit

The Jimu Robot TankBot kit from UBTECH will get you up to speed on building and programming robots. Just use the free Jimu Robot app on your iPad or iPhone for step-by-step instructions in 3D. Learn how to program fluid, lifelike motion for your TankBot's six robotic profile caterpillar servo motors. The kit offers a wide selection of interlocking, component-based parts to help you build this pre-built figure or whatever you come up with.

The TankBot adds some exciting new features to the Jimu robot system. Not only does it have a vehicle powered by profile tracks, but it's also the smartest Jimu Robot yet. The reason: an infrared sensor that detects lines and senses objects so the TankBot can avoid them or pick them up and move them with the first-ever Jimu Robot grab-and-lift feature. What's more, you can still use the app's intuitive programming feature to come up with an endless sequence of actions for the TankBot to perform.

The Jimu TankBot Kit is a modular robot building system with six robot servo motors and 190 easy-to-connect, interlocking parts. With no tools at all, you can build not only the predefined robot but also various individual characters. The only limit is your own imagination! The TankBot Kit provides long-term support for learning and applying STEM (math, computer science, science and technology) skills through play. The kit includes the first Jimu Robot with tracked undercarriage. It has an infrared sensor that allows it to pick up objects and avoid obstacles on command. Building and programming your own robot is no longer a problem with this kit. With the step-by-step 3D instructions of the free Jimu Robot app, the robot can be assembled easily and programmed just as easily. Afterwards, you can upload your own pictures, videos, and programming and share them with the worldwide Jimu Robot community.
