Minds-i Arduino 2-in-1 Robot Kit

Build, Program and Explore Robotics with Arduino

The MINDS-i Arduino 2-in-1 Robot Kit gives students an approachable introduction to programming, robotics, sensors, and mechanical design. Students can build one of two robot configurations at a time—the Hexabot or the Line Follower—and then program the robot to perform autonomous tasks.

The Hexabot uses cam-driven legs and touch sensors to navigate around obstacles, while the Line Follower uses QTI infrared sensors to detect and follow a defined path. Easy-to-use visual instructions and sample programming resources help students focus on the relationship between code, sensors, actuators, and physical movement.

• Build either a Hexabot or Line Follower robot
• Introduces Arduino programming and autonomous robotics
• Uses ultrasonic, infrared, and touch sensors
• Includes continuous-rotation servos and rechargeable battery
• Supports programming experiments with sensors and actuators
• Designed as an entry point into robotics and programming

Two Robot Configurations

Hexabot: Uses servo-driven, cam-operated legs to move through its environment while touch sensors help detect obstacles.

Line Follower: Uses QTI infrared sensors to identify and follow a path while students experiment with sensing, programming, and motor control.
