WhalesBot EnginBot 1s

The WhalesBot EnginBot 1s is an advanced, comprehensive robotics kit designed to guide students and hobbyists from basic block-based coding to text-based programming. With over 700 structural parts and a rich array of sensors and actuators, this kit is perfect for South African educators and makers looking to master complex mechanical engineering.

Powerful controller and diverse sensors

Built around a 32-bit Cortex-M3 processor with 32 Mbit of storage, this kit features a 5-in-1 greyscale sensor, ultrasonic, colour, touch, infrared ranging, ambient light, and magnetic sensors. It also includes four closed-loop motors, four servo motors, and dual dot-matrix displays for highly responsive, interactive builds.

Comprehensive 48-lesson STEM curriculum

This kit includes 48 structured lessons covering Scratch coding, fundamental robotics concepts, and hands-on building projects. It provides educators and self-paced learners with a clear, step-by-step pathway to mastering engineering principles.

Multi-language coding for progressive learning

The EnginBot 1s supports Scratch, Python, and C programming, allowing students to transition smoothly from visual block coding to industry-standard text-based languages. This multi-language support prepares learners for real-world software development and advanced engineering.

Over 700 engineering components

With more than 700 structural parts and various transmission components, users can design and assemble highly complex mechanical systems. The extensive selection allows for endless custom configurations and robust hands-on prototyping.
