The Distance Cubelet, a SENSE Cubelet, is designed to detect objects or obstacles in front of your robot. It is easy to use - simply snap it onto your robot construction, and you'll see the difference immediately. Cubelets are robot blocks that help teach important problem-solving skills, such as collaboration, engineering, design, and computational thinking. The experiences we create for students shape them, and Cubelets are designed to help students build cognitive skills so they can solve the biggest problems and meet all the standards we need to cover.
The Distance Cubelet detects how far an object is from it. It uses infrared light and is accurate between 10 and 80 cm. The sensor is directional, so it outputs the distance to the object in front of the sensor. At 10cm, the block will output values near 1, and toward 80cm, it will output values near 0. You can build robots that drive around on a tabletop, respond to light and other objects, and have surprisingly lifelike behavior without programming that behavior. Instead, you snap the Cubelets together, and the behavior emerges like with a flock of birds or a swarm of bees. Each Cubelet has a tiny computer inside it and is a robot in its own right. When you put Cubelets together, you're actually making a robot out of several smaller robots, and each Cubelet communicates with its neighbors.
Cubelets are lead-free and assembled in Boulder, CO from components made all over the world. They are suitable for ages 4 and up, and they are perfect for STEAM robot activities at home, where learning happens. You can build incredible robots that sense, think, and act using Cubelets, and they are used in classrooms, makerspaces, and museums. Modular Robotics is committed to making the world a better place by ensuring parents have what they need for their kids to succeed, and they back Cubelets with a full one-year warranty and free support.
