Junkbot is a DIY robotic kit that enables young and

old to create and build working robots from almost anything. It transforms household objects such as plastic bottles and old CDs, wooden spoons or cardboard into unique, imaginative robots that can

be programmed for a variety of functions – and at different levels of skill.

Depending on how experienced users are and the technical must-haves they are aiming for, their robotic friends can range from the very simple to the outright complex.

As they delight in making new shapes come alive,kids will learn the core STEAM concepts of analytical thinking, problem solving, prototyping, lateral thinking and building.

Junkbot features color coded elements that allow

users an easy grasp of its components and functions.Each kit comes with a Core unit that controls the several modules like motors and sensors.

Magnetic cables and a variety of adapters (such as magnetic, Velcro, micro-suction and Lego adapter) help assemble the kit.

Module sizes, form and feel are designed for children to build and experiment to their heart’s content.
