Not sure which kit to choose?
01 /

Check exactly what comes in the box.

02 /

Match the controller, batteries, and tools to your setup.

03 /

Read the assembly and coding guide before your first build.

Explore sensing and movement with a small robot platform for your micro:bit.

Functions

  • Try line tracking, following and obstacle avoidance examples.
  • Add music and lighting to robot behaviours.
  • Create MakeCode or Python programs.

Components & hardware

Compact car platform, drive and sensor electronics, lighting, buzzer and rear alligator-clip connections.

Technology

micro:bit platform; MakeCode and Python.

How it works

A fitted micro:bit reads the car's sensors and executes your program. The drive circuitry changes the wheel motion while other outputs provide sound or light feedback.

Specifications

  • Kit type: Robot Car Kit.
  • Platform: micro:bit.
  • Control and interfaces: micro:bit platform; MakeCode and Python.
  • Selected option: Robot car — micro:bit and hand controller excluded.

What's included

Selected configuration and described hardware: Robot car — micro:bit and hand controller excluded. Compact car platform, drive and sensor electronics, lighting, buzzer and rear alligator-clip connections.

Exact quantities and minor accessories should be checked against the supplier's packing list before ordering.

Suggested skill level

Beginner to intermediate — guided assembly and basic coding.

Project ideas

  • Program a line-following run.
  • Add light and sound feedback to driving.

Before you build
