These kits are designed for beginning builders who need to learn how to use simple hand tools and to follow detailed instructions. These kits are recommended for children 12 or above, but many kids as young as 7 have successfully built these kits (and developed a lot of self confidence) with hands-on help from a parent or grandparent.

These kits produce real robots which run, move and interact with their environment. They are not programmable, so they only perform behaviors which have been preprogrammed by the manufacturer.

Picture of productMoonwalker II - Soldering Robot Kit
from OWI Robots




Not one, but two! Light and Sound! MOON WALKER II has combined the technology of two sensors. A whimsical indication of future trends, MOON WALKER II begins to walk when it detects a change in light intensity or sound commands. MOON WALKER II continues it's four legged voyage until instructed by an internal timer to stop. This kit presents an engaging oppor-tunity to learn about some of the mechanics, operation and history of robots. When assembled, this robot uses a phototransistor to sense changes in light (such as turning on a lamp) and a condenser microphone to sense changes in sound (such as clapping). It converts those stimuli into electronic signals to power a motor, and MOON WALKER II will walk forward for a preset time. When it stops, affecting other change in light area light or sound may activate it again. The sensors can be adjusted for different sensitivity levels. Catalog number: 42267. Brand: OWI Robots.
