OWI-9875 Binary Player Robot
$37.95

Availability: In Stock
Usually ships in 1-2 Business Days

Just OWI introduces the second generation of its binary navigating robot kit. BINARY PLAYER ROBOT is very “predictable”, two-wheeled robot. An internal program stored on a memory disk created by the user ascertains its predictability. Therein, however, lies the fun. Binary Player Robot is easily re-programmable by the controller… you.

Binary Player Robot is controlled by black and white patterns on a disk, which are read by an infrared sensor. Particular patterns activate either of two wheels to turn left, right, forward, or pause. These on/off commands illustrate the basic principles of binary coding. To change a movement program, the operator simply creates a new disk pattern. Set your course and explore the fascinating world of Binary Player Robot!

Dr. OWIKIT says this is an excellent Beginner Series robot. This battery-controlled kit can teach the basic principles of robotic sensing and locomotion. It features a pre-assembled printed circuit board, hardware, and mechanical drive system that can be handled by almost anyone from age 10 and up. Only basic hand tools are required for assembly. An infrared sensor and printed circuit board controls your programmable friend. Binary Player Robot is more than just fun. Assembling, building, and following instructions help develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination.

Easy to assemble, this OWIKIT Intermediate building level robot makes a great entrant for robotic competitions, science fair projects, robotic workshops, after-school programs, special events, gifts, science enrichment camps, and classroom activities.

Blake J. asked:


Hello. I am in the 8th grade and is currently approaching science fair time. I cannot think of much ideas for a project other than having a hermit crab interacting with other animals and seeing how that would go. I would like to do a project that would be enjoyable and get me a good grade at a low budget. If you have any ideas of a good, cheap, enjoyable, science fair project please tell me. Or if you don’t would you please tell me what animals would interact well with a hermit crab without one of them seeing their death.
