Maqueen Lite Blue micro:bit Educational Programming Robot Platform

The Maqueen Lite is the new version of the popular Maqueen micro:bit graphically programmable training robot. This version features a white / blue plastic case, which not only looks stylish, but also protects the electronics from curious children's hands. Unlike the standard Maqueen, the Maqueen Lite already comes pre-assembled, and only needs to be equipped with micro:bit and batteries. The mini-robot offers interesting functions and is plug-and-play. Therefore, children can quickly learn graphical programming to arouse interest in science and logical thinking. You can do the robot's graphical programming with the online editor https://makecode.microbit.org where you can also find many sample codes for the robot. Before using the Maqueen Library, you need to add the following extensions: https://github.com/jhlucky/maqueen

Maqueen is also accessible on the Mind+ programming platform. Mind+ is a Scratch3.0-based graphical programming platform from DFRobot, which supports Python, Arduino and other programming platforms. Currently, Mind+ is applied to all types of sensors, modules and related learning products.

Info: AAA batteries and micro:bit controller must be purchased separately.
