Robots are machines that are able to replicate certain human movements and functions automatically. The fuction or movement can be simple - like lifting something - or it can be a complex series of actions that it does by itself, usually programmed by a computer. Curious Universe Radical Robotics will teach children about all different types of robots - from the robot that transforms into a tank and a scorpion in this kit, to more traditional machines like levers and pulleys. With over 50 experiments included, such as a hydraulic pincer, marshmallow catapult, balloon rocket car, artificial heart and more, this kit will create a lifelong love of robots!
