Binary Player Robot!

Non-soldering - beginner experience recommended, for ages 10 and up.

What is an OWI Binary Player robot, anyway? Well, it's a robot building kit in which the movement is controlled by black and white patterns on a disk, which are read by an infrared sensor. Particular patterns activate either of two wheels to turn left, right, forward, or pause. These on/off commands illustrate the basic principles of binary coding. To change a movement program, the operator simply creates a new disk pattern. You can re-program it anytime. Set your course and explore the fascinating world of the Binary Player Robot kit!

Want a great science fair project? This is the second generation OWI binary navigating robot kit. This battery-controlled kit can teach the basic principles of robotic sensing and locomotion. And it's a fun science toy! It features a pre-assembled printed circuit board, hardware, and mechanical drive system, and only basic hand tools are required for assembly. An infrared sensor and printed circuit board controls your programmable friend. Binary Player Robot is more than just fun. Assembling, building, and following instructions help develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. OWI kits are great for robotic competitions, science fair projects, robotic workshops, after-school programs, special events, gifts, science enrichment camps, and classroom activities.

This is a non-soldering robot building kit, beginner experience recommended. Requires 4 "AA" batteries, not included.
