Junkbot

What is Junkbot?

Junkbot is a DIY robotic kit that enables young and old to create and build working robots from almost anything. It transforms house hold objects such as plastic bottles and old CDs,wooden spoons or cardboard in to unique,imaginative robots that can be programmed for a variety of functions – and at different levels of skill. As they delight in making new shapes come alive,kids will learn the core STEAM concepts of analytical thinking,problem solving,prototyping, lateral thinking and building

ir sensor

IR Sensor

IR sensor is an electronic sensor that emit and detecte infrared radiation.

dc motor

DC Motor

DC motor is a rotating electrical machine that uses the direct current (DC) to produce mechanical energy from the electrical energy.

buzzer

Buzzer

It is a simple Piezo Transducer that create some beeps. Piezo Transducers are similar to speakers in that an applied voltage causes the piezo crystal to move and make a sound.

servo







Servo Motor

Servo motors are electrical devices that are used to push or rotate the objects at different specific angles. It enable you to make robotics arm, gates, moving sensors and many other cool projects that demand moving in specific angles.

Junkbot board

Junkbot Board

Junkbot board is a microcontroller board based on Arduino NANO. It has many digital and analog I/O pins. In addition, to a built-in Bluetooth and Wi-Fi models.

ultrasonic sensor

Ultrasonic Sensor

Ultrasonic sensor is a device that can measure the distance to an object by using sound waves

usb cable





USB Cable

It is used to connect the board with the computer, upload the code, and power it.

LED

LED

It emits a bright white light

wheels







Wheels

They should be connected to the motors

castor wheel



Castor Wheel

It is used to balance the robot and ease its movement

touch sensor

Touch Sensor

This type of sensors are very sensitive to the touch.It reacts to any physical contact by emitting a red flash

PIR sensor

PIR Sensor

a motion sensor that detect human movement. PIR stands for Passive Infrared Radiation sensor, since it senses the infrared radiation
