Thames & Kosmos SolarBots 8-in-1 Solar Robot Kit
Robot Kit Overview:
The Thames & Kosmos SolarBots Eight-in-One Solar Robot Kit is an engaging and educational kit that allows young engineers to explore the fascinating world of solar power through hands-on robotics. This kit allows you to build unique robots that are powered by the sun, harnessing energy through a compact solar panel that powers an electric motor to bring the robots to life. This feature eliminates the need for batteries while providing a fun and educational way of learning. Build a drummer robot that marches along beating a drum, an armadillo robot that does somersaults, a solar bug that crawls on six legs, and many more! The full-color manual provides step-by-step guidance for model assembly and includes fun scientific facts about the real-life applications of solar technology.
