Design, build & code with Build:bit.
Build:bit is a STEM learning tool created for kids to design, build & code their very own robots. Combining colorful building blocks and an intuitive drag-and-drop coding language {Microsoft MakeCode}, Build:bit continuously engages kids through playful learning activities to think critically and solve complex problems, regardless of their learning level.
Build:bit come with 222 building blocks, 2 building block motors and 1 building block servo that can be used to build Racer, Catapult, Helicopter, Crawling Mech, and so on. Equipped with the super:bit multi-functional expansion board, it gives these building blocks the vitality of life by Microsoft MakeCode Editor or Python programming for micro:bit.
We can achieve some interesting functions and mechanisms, such as Transportation, Line Following, Automated Door, Paper Cutter, etc. Coupled with detailed assembly steps, Build:bit allows users to experience the fun of robot building while learning programming.
From simple entry-level projects to limitless creative design possibilities, complemented by the option to explore text-based coding with JavaScript and Python, Build:bit is sure to help kids grasp the essential STEM and 21st century skills needed to become the innovative minds of tomorrow... while having fun!
