Cubelets Six Kit

Emergence is about how complex behaviors can come from many small, simple interactions. Cubelets tap into the amazing power of emergent behavior. You can stack, snap, and assemble your own robot without programming or wires. These magnetic blocks let you create an endless variety of robots. Build robots that move on a tabletop, react to light, sound, and temperature, and show surprisingly lifelike behavior. Instead of programming, just snap the cubelets together and watch the behavior emerge, like with a flock of birds or a swarm of bees. Each cubelet in the kit has different features and a default behavior. There are Sense Blocks like our eyes and ears, Action blocks that affect the robot's surroundings, and Think blocks like our brain. No need to buy a separate battery charger. This Cubelets kit comes with a USB A to microB cable to charge the Cubelet Battery Block via your computer or a 5V wall wart. Also, the two included Brick Adapters can connect to your favorite brick - based construction systems, bringing life to your existing toys. Kit Includes: 1x Drive Block with a motor and wheels for robot movement, 1x Flashlight Block with a bright white LED for a focused light beam, 1x Brightness Block to detect ambient light, 1x Distance Block with an infrared range finder accurate from 10 to 80 cm, 1x Battery Block as the robot's power source, 1x Passive Block for connecting other blocks, 1x USB Charging Cable, and 2x Brick Adapter.

Using the Cubelets Six - Piece Kit is a breeze. First, decide on the kind of robot you want to build. If you want a robot that moves towards light, start by connecting the Drive Block and the Brightness Block. Just snap the magnetic sides of the cubelets together. You can use the Passive Block to connect different parts of your robot. When it comes to power, use the included USB A to microB cable to charge the Battery Block through your computer or a 5V wall wart. You can also use the Brick Adapters to connect your Cubelets to your favorite brick - based toys. As for maintenance, keep the cubelets clean and dry. Avoid exposing them to extreme temperatures or moisture. If the blocks aren't connecting well, check if the magnetic sides are dirty. And always store the kit in a safe place when not in use to prevent any damage.
