NEW! Magcircuits Explore Robotics 20 piece set empowers children of all ages to develop computational thinking skills and learn principles of Robotics by easily building their own devices. With Magcircuits, children discover principles of electronics, robotics, coding and clean energy via open-ended exploration. This set features Drive, Distance and Programable blocks that sense, automate and control motion. Each block has a special function and belongs to one of four categories: Power Blocks provide sources of electrical power. Control Blocks provide information from their environment or specific functions. Action Blocks turn information and power into physical actions. Build Blocks provides support, structure and electrical insulation to electronic devices. Blocks within this set: Rechargeable Battery and Charger (1) Drive - Converts Power into Motion (1) Programable - Pushbuttons select programs (1) Distance - Senses proximity of objects (1) Variable Resistor (1) Solar Cell -Provides clean energy and senses light level (1) Light Sensor/CdS Photoresistor (1) Sound/Music (1) Speaker (1) 470 Ohm Fixed Resistors (2) Tactile (vibration motor with lights) (1) Blinker (1) Blue Light (1) Green Light (1) Red Light (1) On/Off Switch (1) Building/insulators (2) Flashlight (1) “One of the exciting features of this building set is that children can have fun capturing, storing, controlling, and using energy from the sun while learning the principles behind electric cars and clean-energy systems.” Jeff Whittaker, Panelcraft President. "Panelcraft products present a valuable opportunity for integration into K-12 classrooms, offering significant educational potential. The open-ended nature of the magnetic construction sets is particularly appealing, as it fosters creativity and exploration among students. The availability of structured teacher resources provides teachers with support in their integration within classrooms. In particular, the Magcircuits set stands out as an exceptional resource for introducing foundational concepts in electronics, computational thinking, and sequencing skills. The inclusion of diverse components, such as light sensors and sound blocks, adds layers of complexity and engagement, making these tools not only versatile but also highly engaging for students within the classroom. I highly recommend educators explore the possibilities that Panelcraft and Magcircuits tools offer within K-12 settings!"
