Explore Biomechanics Through Robotics
The ACEBOTT QD020 Quadruped Bionic Spider Robot Kit introduces children aged 12 and above to the fascinating world of biomechanics and multi-legged robotics. This engaging kit demonstrates how nature-inspired engineering can be translated into programmable movement.
Key Educational Features
-
Realistic Spider Movement: Eight servo motors work in coordination to create lifelike crawling, walking, and dancing motions across six different movement directions.
-
Pre-Programmed Actions: Includes nine preset behaviours—standby, lying down, sleeping, greeting, push-ups, fighting, dancing, swinging, and a signature pose—demonstrating complex servo choreography.
-
WiFi Control: Powered by ESP8266, the robot responds to commands via the ACEBOTT mobile app or web interface, teaching wireless communication principles.
-
Custom Programming: Once fundamentals are mastered, children can create their own movement sequences using Arduino or ACECode.
-
Durable Construction: Features metal MG90 servos for precision and longevity, with a custom acrylic frame designed for easy assembly.
