Bionic Robotic Arm
Details
The robotic arm of the future is here! The segmented arm is driven by cables like the tendons in muscles, resulting in a mesmerizing motion reminiscent of a cyborg creature’s tentacles in a sci-fi movie. Kids assemble the robotic arm from almost 300 plastic pieces, learning how each part comes together in its intricate mechanical design. Once assembled, the arm is controlled with two joysticks, which pull and release the multiple nylon cables threaded through it, enabling easy and precise control of its movement. Use the right joystick to control the upper body and the left one for the lower body.
