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