TPBot - Smart Car Robot Kit for BBC micro:bit

The TPBot is a smart car robot kit for the BBC micro:bit with a premium building brick compatible ABS chassis, RGB programmable headlights, ultrasonic distance (object avoidance) and line tracking sensors. It's a fun and engaging way to teach budding programmers how to code, which is made easier thanks to the dedicated TPBot MakeCode extension and superb instructions. Make your TPBot follow a line, avoid obstacles, follow an object, play football or just remotely control it with another micro:bit! You can also change the headlights to your favourite colour, automatically dim at night and much more! Additional sensors and hardware such as servos can be added via the connections at the rear of the robot. The TPBot can also be used without a micro:bit installed (line tracking/obstacle avoidance mode only). The robot runs on 4x 1.5V alkaline AAA batteries (not included) - no waiting for charging! micro:bit and AAA batteries not included. Video
