Lego Makes It Easier To Build Your Own ’Bot

Lego’s latest brainy creation, the Mindstorms Robot Inventor Kit empowers kids (of all ages) to build and program their own walking & talking robots. The kit includes parts & instructions for 5 different bots, featuring hubs, sensors, and motors that enable the bots to sense their environment, move, learn, play games, fire darts, and modules that include a 6-axis gyro and accelerometer, a speaker, plus ports galore for customization. The companion app uses a simple Scratch-based coding language that also supports Python.
