Amphibious Solar Vehicle

Solar Power
It's street tough, water ready and solar powered. It would be difficult to find a beginner robotic kit more fun and educational than the Amphibious Solar Vehicle! This kit introduces fundamentals of solar power through hands-on experiments. The sun or any intense mobile light can power the solar cell (included). A multiple function switch (solar [1.4 volt, 350mA] or battery) allows this kit to be energized day or night, indoors or outdoors. Its scientifically structured catamaran design reduces water resistance, thus reducing the possibility of capsizing. The user can explore different types of energy conversion with this land and water vehicle. Learn what materials solar cells are made from and the characteristics of solar cells, advantages and disadvantages of solar power.

Dr. Toy, Stevanne Auerbach, Ph.D., author, consultant and expert on child development and children's products says, 'PHENOMENAL! - Amphibious Solar Vehicle is the toy for the new millennium Land, Water, Solar Power, WOW! This is the way future technology is taking us.'

Jungle Robot

Sound Sensor
Live, explore, and adventure the world of robotics with OWI's newest edition to their award winning line of robotic and science kits - Jungle Robot.
Jungle Robot is a mysterious robot. One day, you may look up and catch a glimpse of Jungle Robot crossing hand-over-hand high across a string extended from tree to tree in the mist of the jungle air. Another day, you can catch him skipping through the fallen leaves on the ground. A condenser microphone and printed circuit board controls your multi-function (walking or climbing) friend. When you think Jungle Robot is asleep, just cry Wake UP! Your robot will immediately start climbing or walking for a pre-set time and reset itself waiting for another command.
Jungle Robot is an excellent Beginner Series robot. This battery controlled robot kit can teach the basic principles of robotic sensing and locomotion. It features a pre-assembled printed circuit board, hardware, and mechanical drive system. Only basic hand tools are required for assembly.

Educators, science museums, and hobbyist will surely appreciate the durability, educational value, and endless hours of amusement.
Requires 1 AA battery (not included)
Ages 10 and up.
Dimensions: 9.5 x 10 x 4
Printed circuit board pre-assembled.

Comet

Sound Sensor
The Beginner Level OWI COMET is quick to respond and scurries speedily on command. A condenser microphone and a printed circuit board control this OWIKIT. Each time its sound sensor hears your command it reacts. COMET possesses three radical features: sequential commands, random control, and drawing capabilites. The two wheeled mechanical marvel can be controlled in its sequential mode. Clap your hands or make any loud sound to control it. For each sound COMET will begin a new action. The sequence of commands are forward, spin clockwise, and stop. Random control allows COMET to make its own decisions. Drop a marking pen in COMET’s pen holder, and command it to draw.
Requires 2 AA batteries (not included)
Ages 10 and up.
Printed circuit board pre-assembled.

Weasel

Touch/Light Sensor

Weasel is a tenacious little robot warrior that embodies two sensors that allow it to "see" a line or "feel" its way along walls and around corners. The two motors and contact sensor activate the wall sensing micro switch to control the motors’ on/off operation that determines the path of a wall. It is the classic robot design using the "Left Hand Rule" to escape mazes. With OWI’s continued pursuit in making robots "smart", they have added an additional feature to this little bundle of energy - a sonic tracking system. Underneath Weasel’s sturdy plastic base, you will discover photo- transistors that enable it to detect and follow a black line. Wow! Weasel still has more features! Want speed? Well, its three-speed gearbox will help navigate at the velocity you determine.
Quick and easy to assemble, this is a beginner robot that make great entrants for robotic competitions, robotic workshops, after-school programs, special events, gifts, science enrichment camps, and classroom activities.
Requires 2 AA batteries (not included)
Ages 8 and up.
