Makeblock Ultimate 2.0 10-in-1 Kit

Makeblock Ultimate 2.0 10-in-1 Kit: a kit for everyone, in all its forms

The Makeblock Ultimate 2.0 10-in-1 Kit offers an astonishing number of possible transformations, from a robotic arm mounted on a tank to an amusing robotic bartender. These 10 configurations are all very accessible, including to young users, thanks to a system of perforated parts that are easily fixed together.

This Makeblock kit can be programmed on Arduino, Python, Node JS and using a programming software for beginners. So it is designed not only for teachers and researchers but also students taking their first steps in the world of STEM and robotics.

A kit built on an Arduino architecture

The MegaPi board at the heart of this Makeblock system is based on an Arduino MEGA 2560 board. Both efficient and effective, it can control up to 10 servo motors or 8 DC motors simultaneously.

The kit also includes a choice of electronic modules allowing the robot to sense light and sound and to move around autonomously, and there is a Bluetooth connection for controlling your creation from a distance.
