Kit contents & full specifications
3 Levels of Robot Building and Coding
MRT Friends is a step-by-step robotics learning system designed for primary school students aged 6โ10. Each level builds on the previous one, introducing new components, programming concepts, and increasingly complex robot builds.
Level 1 โ Mechanical Foundations (17 Models)
Learn the basics of mechanical engineering through hands-on building. No electronics required โ just gears, levers, and creative construction.
- ๐ง Battery Case + DC Motor + Switch Sensor
- ๐ฆ Build: Power Wheel, Scooter, Manual Fan, Frog, Snail, Merry Go Round, Horse, F1 Racing Car, Walking Robot, Locomotive, Helicopter, and more
- ๐ฏ Learn: Gear ratios, torque, mechanical advantage, motion transfer
Level 2 โ Remote Control Robotics (12 Models)
Add the NODE Board controller and infrared remote to bring robots to life with programmable movement and sensor-driven autonomy.
- ๐๏ธ NODE Board + Remote Controller + DC Motor + R/C Sensor
- ๐ฆ Build: Crab, Bumper Car, Avoider Dragon, Line Tracing Car, Sumo Robot, Scorpion, Soccer Robot, Delivery Robot, Ball Collector, and more
- ๐ฏ Learn: Input/output, sensors, remote operation, obstacle avoidance, line tracing
Level 3 โ Card Coding and Automation (15 Models)
Introduce programming through physical coding cards. Arrange command cards (Forward, Turn, Speed, IF/ELSE, Loops) in sequence, scan with the Card Reader, and watch the robot execute your program.
- ๐ก NODE Board + Card Reader + Battery Cases + LED Sensors
- ๐ฆ Build: Traffic Light, Robot Arm, Automatic Door, Crane, Robot Dog, Serving Robot, Multipurpose Robot, and more
