Cubelets - Blocker Cubelet

The Blocker Cubelet is a fundamental building block for creating robots. It's designed to 'block' data transmission between neighboring cubelets, while still allowing power to pass through. This effectively cuts off communication and can isolate one part of a robot from another. Cubelets are magnetic blocks that can be easily snapped together to create an infinite variety of robots. You can build robots that move around on a tabletop, react to light, sound, and temperature, and exhibit surprisingly lifelike behavior. The best part? You don't need to program the behavior. Just snap the cubelets together and watch the behavior emerge, similar to a flock of birds or a swarm of bees. Note: Cubelets require a special battery and charger, which you'll need to purchase separately. You can find the product page and product video for more information.

Using the Blocker Cubelet is easy. Just snap it between other cubelets in your robot creation. It'll block data flow while still letting power pass through. When building your robot, you can use it to isolate different parts and control how they communicate. Remember, Cubelets need a special battery and charger, so make sure to buy the charger separately. To maintain your Cubelets, keep them clean and dry. Avoid dropping or hitting them hard, as this could damage the internal components. If you want to explore more, check out the product page and watch the product video for inspiration.
