DFRobot Maqueen Plus V3 micro:bit STEM Robot with Matrix Laser Ranging

€69,90

The Maqueen Plus V3 is an advanced educational robot engineered to revolutionize STEM robot education and competitions for primary and secondary school students. The Maqueen Plus V3 operates by integrating a sophisticated suite of sensors and control mechanisms. It leverages a powerful matrix laser ranging sensor for environmental perception, high-precision motor encoders with PID control for accurate movement, and built-in algorithms for complex tasks such as line-tracking and intersection recognition. These capabilities allow for more dynamic and intricate applications in educational settings.
