In this corner, the wonder from Down Under, we have Kangaroo-Bot! And in that corner, hailing from the rough-and-tumble robotics lab, it's Robo-Boxer! Ding! Ding! These boxing robots use hydraulic power to move like real boxers, packed with the excitement of a boxing match and the fun of constructing incredible mechanical models. This kit allows you to build two boxing robots and challenge a friend to a match, with complex shoulder gestures, two boxing punches (jab and uppercut), three waist postures, and interchangeable heads, designed to float like butterflies and sting like bees.
Learn about the physics, design, and components of hydraulic (water-powered) mechanisms, including gears, cylinders, and pistons. The upper and lower body move independently to simulate real-life movements, allowing these boxing bots to dodge, jab, and punch with accuracy. Use the handheld hydraulic controls to fight like a champ, knocking your opponent robot's head backward and scoring a point on the included scoreboard.
Leave the rocking and socking to the lightweights, as this awesome STEM kit really packs a punch! Build two boxing robots that are powered by hydraulics and introduce important physics and engineering lessons through a fun, hands-on building project with a big punch. Featured in Purdue University's 2023 INSPIRE Engineering Gift Guide, this kit is a must-have for anyone interested in robotics, engineering, and the thrill of a good old-fashioned robot battle.
