This robotics kit is simple, elegant and intuitive, with absolutely no wires or programmatic knowledge needed. Steel spheres act as connectors and hinges that allow magnetic blocks to move. Assemble the blocks in a variety of shapes, and use the spheres for various ranges of movement. It can go wherever your imagination takes it.

Even better, you can extend your robot’s abilities by using apps to connect it to your Android or iPhone. Control your robot directly from your smartphone, no software required.
