Build it. Give it a command. See what happens.
Make the connection between a physical robot and the instructions it follows. Explore card coding, touch and IR sensors through playful model projects.
A little project.
A bigger discovery.
Every model gives your child something to make, something to notice and a new question to explore.
Explore wheels and commands
Build a vehicle and relate its movement to the course coding activities.
Explore a moving mechanism
Use an animal-inspired model to investigate how parts work together.
Connect sensing and response
Connect the model with the touch sensor coding lesson and test what happens.
Curiosity comes first.
Understanding grows with every try.
Meet the 201 board
Begin with the mainboard overview and card coding basics.
Connect an input
Follow touch sensor, IR sensor and remote controller coding lessons.
Build and test
Explore cars, animals and moving mechanisms with the matching model guides.
Combine ideas
Use the multi-sensor lesson to compare responses and refine a sequence.
Turn cause and effect into something you can build.
Practise following a guide, solving a problem and explaining what happened. Rebuilding gives each idea another chance.
Something to build.
A way to understand it.
A clear path from card coding basics to touch, IR, remote control and multi-sensor activities.

Kit contents & full specifications
For Mid Primary Students (Ages 7โ12)
STEM Robotics Mechanisms 201 helps students move from simple robot operation into structured coding logic. This course introduces command-based robot programming using physical programming cards and a card scanner โ no computer required.
Students learn how commands, sequences, sensors, and outputs work together. Instead of typing code, they use pre-programmed coding cards to build logical instructions, making this course an excellent bridge between hands-on robotics and formal programming. The addition of LED sensors and a buzzer sensor expands the range of creative projects students can build.
Who Is This For?
- Mid primary students (Ages 7โ12)
- Students progressing from the 101 Foundations Kit
- Learners ready for their first coding logic experience (screen-free)
- Schools and centres introducing structured programming concepts
Learning Focus
- Basic coding logic โ sequences, loops, and conditions
- Card-based programming using physical coding cards and card scanner
- Input and output relationships โ sensors triggering robot actions
- LED sensor control โ red, blue, and green
- Sound output through buzzer sensor
- Debugging through physical robot behaviour
- Gear mechanisms and mechanical engineering concepts
Coding Method
Card-Based Programming
Students use pre-programmed coding cards scanned by the card scanner. Each card represents a command (move, turn, sensor check, repeat). Students arrange cards in sequence to build programs โ a powerful screen-free introduction to programming logic.
