It’s also equipped with two motors with variable speeds, left and right red LED lights and three control buttons.

(1) Robo-Brush™ Toothbrush Robot Kit (BRUBOT)
Easy to build, students will create a micro robot using the head of a toothbrush, a tiny motor and a battery. Once assembled and wired, the toothbrush bristles will turn into hundreds of fast moving legs propelling the robot to move and buzz around. Understanding kinetic energy and energy transference will go from an abstract concept to a tangible, observable experience.

(1) Boost-R-Bots™ - STEAM Education Robotics Kit (MRT3)
Boost-R-Bots™ engineering kit helps transform abstract concepts into hands-on learning experiences. Students across multiple grades, from elementary school to high school, will get a first-hand experience with this engaging multi-function robot engineering kit.
