The cyber:bot robot adds a tangible hardware dimension to Python-focused computer science, CTE and cybersecurity programs.

Or
The cyber:bot robot puts the BBC micro:bit module on the Parallax small robot form factor that's a proven STEM success in classrooms from middle school into college, leveraging the add-ons available for this chassis.
A user-transparent onboard Propeller Multicore Microcontroller assists the micro:bit, handling the real-time servo motor control and sensors built on the breadboard.
 
This enables more robust robotic applications that go beyond what the micro:bit can do on its own.  
 
Features
 
Python-programmable with Mu software or online MicroPython editor
cyber:bot board neatly connects the micro:bit to the Propeller Multicore Microcontroller and robot hardwar
Propeller multicore microcontroller pre-programmed with cyber:bot firmware manages sensors and servo motor control
Build DIY sensor circuits on the breadboard that use touch, visible light, and infrared light
Compatible with Parallax small robot add-ons including the Ping))) Ultrasonic Sensor, Ping))) Laser Sensor, QTI Line Follower Kit, and Crawler Kit
 
Note: The initial launch of cyber:bot includes software setup, micro:bit programming, assembly instructions, and basic navigation. Additional tutorials with circuit-building for all of the kit’s sensors will be published periodically, with a full 40-hour set of classroom tutorials available for the Fall 2019 semester.
Requires 5 AA 1.5 V alkaline batteries or 5 1.2 V nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries, not included.
 
Assembly required, no soldering necessary
