Here is a cute robotic pet hedgehog that can be programmed to react to different sounds. The Tumbling Hedgehog Robotic Pet comes with over 170 building pieces. The robot can tumble, roll, spin around, and bristle its spines when reacting to different sounds.
Meet the Mirobot: a 6-axis desktop robotic arm ready for your drawing, writing, and coding needs. It is open source and uses OpenMV and computer vision to perceive objects around it. The Mirobot can rotate freely on the vertical axes to complete tasks.
Meet the SunFounder Rollarm: a robotic arm for Arduino that gives you hands-on experience on robot design, assembly, and coding. The kit comes with expansion board, SunFounder Uno R3 Control Board, button, servo motors, and everything you need to get started.
The companion software gives you easy control over the robot. The kit comes with over 100 pieces. It lets you build a robotic arm with flexible arm and 180-degree wrist motion.
Drones are getting more advanced all the time but battery life still remains an issue. EPFL startup Flybotix has developed a dual propeller drone with advanced stabilization system that can fly twice as long as conventional models and can inspect hard-to-reach areas.
Here is a drone made with Marvel fans in mind. The Tello Iron Man Coding Drone has a 720p camera and intelligent modes, so even beginners can pilot it easily. It comes with propeller guards and other safety features. You can interact with it using the Tello Hero app.
Plenty of robots have been inspired by animals and insects. A team of EPFL researchers havs developed 10-gram robots inspired by ants. They can communicate with each other to complete tasks. These robots can be given different roles and configured as a follower, leader, worker, or coordinator.
The Raspberry Pi 4 was released just a short while ago. You can now get the pi-top 4 to start getting serious about coding and making cool things. It is a computer module for makers with a programmable mini screen, buttons, CPU cooling system, all powered by a Pi 4 computer.
There is no better way to learn electronics and robots than building and programming your own Arduino robots. How To Mechatronics has shared a video that shows what it takes to build your own Arduino robotic arm with mecnaum wheels.
