it Quadra-spectacular! As its name indicates, 4-in-1 Robot Kit features four
different methods of movement: Traversing -- hand over hand (Orangutan mode),
two legged walking (Gorilla mode), four legged walking (Centaur mode) and six
legged walking (Spider mode). Discover the dynamics of animal locomotion. What
are the benefits or disadvantages of two or four or six-legged propulsion?
Make a connection and differentiate the physical characteristics of stability
verses mobility. Simple engineering and basic industrial design are accomplished
in its self-stabilizing computations.</font></p>
<p><font color="00ff66" size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">This battery-controlled
kit can teach the basic principles of robotic sensing and locomotion. It features
a pre-assembled printed circuit board, hardware, and mechanical drive system
that can be handled by almost anyone from age 10 and up. Only basic hand tools
are required for assembly. A condenser microphone and printed circuit board
controls your multi-function friend. The built in sensor reacts to vibrations
from sound, such as a high pitched noise or a clap. </font></p>
