DESCRIPTION

KIBO 15 Kit is a Consumer-Robot from KinderLab Robotics. It is built for Education.

The KIBO 15 Kit builds on the movement and sequencing of the KIBO 10 Kit by introducing programming with a sensor and an output: a sound sensor and a lightbulb module. It also expands what children can express with an art stage on which they build their own creations. The kit contains one KIBO robot with 15 programming blocks, 4 parameter cards, 2 motors, 2 wheels, 1 sound sensor, 1 lightbulb module and art stages (a stage support, a stage pedestal and a rectangular stage platform). Children build the robot themselves and program it by lining up wooden programming blocks and scanning their bar codes with KIBO's built-in scanner, then press the green button to run the program, with no screen, tablet or computer involved. The robot is built to survive young children, runs on AA batteries, plugs its motors in from below through a transparent base, and takes art platforms so children can turn it into anything they imagine.
