PLEN:bit sensor controlled micro:bit robot

A new robot has been created powered by the awesome BBC micro:bit mini PC providing a sensor controlled micro:bit robot that can be programmed and includes movable arms and legs. Watch the demonstration video below to learn more about the PLEN:bit humanoid robot which has been designed to enable anyone to easily program. “Beginner or advanced, regardless of ability, anyone can freely and easily program the sensors and LEDs in the micro:bit to create your robot’s motions and reactions.” The PLEN:bit has both a distance sensor and sound sensor that can be used even to navigate a maze.

PLEN:bit has a small body only 13cm tall and eight movable joints, allowing a multitude of movement. Even using preset motions such as walking, dancing and waving, you can find many ways to have fun with PLEN:bit. The micro:bit is equipped with a JavaScript Block Editor accessed from any web browser and is suited for beginners. Using this you can easily program your PLEN:bit.

For more information and a full list of pledges starting from £179 jump over to the official Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign page. If all goes well and the campaign is successful and manufacturing progresses smoothly worldwide shipping is expected to take place during April 201
