Introducing the CIC Kits Softtube Robotic Arm STEM Toy, a futuristic project that brings sci-fi mechanics to life for your young engineer. Unlock the mysteries of bio-mechanics with this innovative toy, powered solely by the tension of nylon strings. This robotic arm simulates the natural movements of living organisms, offering an immersive building and learning experience. Omni-Directional Movement: Operate the Softtube Robotic Arm easily with two joysticks, controlling the 4 axes in 8 different directions simultaneously. Test your motor skills by picking up various objects and see how the intelligent mechanical design functions without needing multiple motors for each joint. A simulation of a biomechanics: The nylon strings replicate the contraction and extension of animal muscles, creating lifelike movements. With a 360-degree range of motion, the arm can swing in any direction, bending at different angles for a variety of combinations. The intuitive left and right joysticks control the upper and lower segments, while the buttons trigger the opening, closing, and rotation of the front-end gripper. Innovative Play Modes: Features two exciting play modes. In "Claw" mode, it grasps objects like a traditional robotic arm, using its segmented structure to navigate around obstacles and reach behind them. In "Garden Eel" mode, players interact with a garden eel companion, engaging in imaginative activities like feeding, playing games, and dancing, creating rich storytelling scenarios. STEM Engineering Challenge: Through hands-on assembly, children will not only acquire mechanical knowledge but also develop better problem-solving skills. The openwork chassis design lets kids see how the inner mechanical parts work together, inspiring them to think outside the box. Made in Taiwan Maximum Lift: about 50g Recommended Age: 12+ Package size (WxDxH): 398mm×105mm ×290mm
