I-LEGO Education iqinisekisile ukuthi ikhipha wonke umkhiqizo we-SPIKE. Le nkampani yamemezela lezi zindaba ngoJanuwari 2026, futhi ziza nomnqamulajuqu oqinile: ukuthengiswa okusha kuphela ngomhla ka-30 Juni 2026. Uma isikole sakho sakhe uhlelo lwaso lwe-robotics luzungeze i-SPIKE Essential noma i-SPIKE Prime, akukho okuphukayo ngobusuku obubodwa, kodwa iwashi seliqalile. Lena yinkinga yokuhlela, hhayi isimo esiphuthumayo.

Yini ngempela emenyezelwe yi-LEGO

Susa umsindo bese lesi simemezelo sehlela ezinsukwini ezimbalwa nasesinqumweni esisodwa somkhiqizo. Nakhu okuqinisekisiwe:

• Wonke umkhiqizo we-SPIKE uyakhishwa, ukuthengiswa kuphela ngomhla ka-30 Juni 2026.
• Uhlelo lokusebenza oludala lwe-EV3 luyeka ukusekelwa ngomhla ka-31 Julayi 2026.
• Amaqembu e-FIRST LEGO League (FLL) angaqhubeka esebenzisa i-SPIKE kuze kuphele isizini yango-2027-28.
• Ozothatha isikhundla yikhithi entsha ye-Computer Science ne-AI, eqala ku-$339.95.

Lokhu akuyona into ethusayo kunoma ubani owabona i-Mindstorms ihamba. I-LEGO yawuvala kancane kancane umkhiqizo wayo wabathengi we-Mindstorms eminyakeni ecishe ibe mine edlule, kanti i-SPIKE yiyona nkundla yemfundo eyaqhubeka nawo lo msebenzi. Ukuyikhipha kuvala isahluko esaqala ngesitini se-RCX eminyakeni engaphezu kwamashumi amabili edlule. I-LEGO ishicilele yonke imininingwane nezinsuku ekhasini layo elisemthethweni lezibuyekezo ze-SPIKE.

Kungani lokhu kubalulekile uma isikole sakho sisebenzisa i-SPIKE

Ukukhathazeka kwangempela akukhona ukuthi amakhithi akho azoyeka ukusebenza ngomhla ka-1 Julayi 2026. Izitini, ama-motor nezinzwa kuzoqhubeka kwenze kanye lokho ebekukwenza ngosuku olwandulele. Izinkinga zangempela zihamba kancane futhi zithule.

Izingxenye zokushintsha ziba nzima ukuzithola. Isethi yekilasi elahlekelwa yizinzwa zombala ezimbalwa noma ama-motor amakhulu ithemu ngayinye ithembele ekutholakaleni okuqhubekayo kwezimpahla zokushintsha. Uma ukuthengiswa okusemthethweni sekuphelile, uzobe udonsa esitokweni esinciphayo, futhi amanani asemakethe yezinto ezisetshenzisiwe avame ukukhuphuka. Ukusekelwa kwesofthiwe nakho kubalulekile: izibuyekezo zohlelo lokusebenza, ukulungiswa kwe-firmware nokuhambisana nezinhlelo ezintsha zokusebenza kuvame ukuma uma umkhiqizo usukhishiwe, ngakho ukuvuselelwa okujwayelekile kwamathebulethi noma amalaptop esikoleni kungayishiya ibhajwe buthule ikhithi esasebenza.

Bese kuba nekharikhulamu. Uma izifundo zakho, amaphepha okusebenza namarubhriki okuhlola kubhalwe kuzungeza amabhulokhi e-SPIKE, lokho kumele isikhathi sangempela sothisha. Amaqembu emincintiswano anesikhathi sawo: ukusekelwa kwe-FLL kuze kube ngu-2027-28 kukunika cishe ezinye izizini ezimbili zokusebenzisa okusemthethweni, okuyisikhathi esiningi uma kuqhathaniswa nomnqamulajuqu wokuthengiswa.

Okufanele ukwenze ngaphambi kukaJuni 2026

Izikole zaseNingizimu Afrika zivulela unyaka omusha njengamanje, ngakho lesi yisikhathi esihle sokufaka ukuhlelela i-SPIKE esabelweni sakho semali sonyaka kunokuxakeka kamuva. Sebenza ngalolu hlu:

1. Hlola lokho onakho. Bala amakhithi akho bese uphawula ukuthi yiziphi izingxenye ezivele zilahleka njalo. Izinzwa ezincane nama-axle imvamisa yizona eziphezulu ohlwini.
2. Thenga izingxenye zokushintsha ngaphambi komhla ka-30 Juni 2026. Beka esabelweni cishe amaphesenti ayi-10 kuya kweyi-15 enani lekhithi yakho ukuze uthenge ama-motor, izinzwa nama-hub okushintsha ngesikhathi esasekhona emashalofini.
3. Yenza ikhophi yesipele yesofthiwe yakho. Gcina ama-installer, amafayela ephrojekthi nanoma yimaphi amabhulokhi enziwe ngokwezifiso emshinini wakho, futhi umise isithombe sethebhulethi noma se-laptop esisebenzisa i-SPIKE njengamanje.
4. Klama isikhathi sakho somncintiswano. Uma usebenzisa i-FLL, hlela uzungeza umnqamulajuqu ka-2027-28 bese unquma ukuthi isinyathelo esilandelayo yinkundla entsha noma ukukhuphukela ku-FIRST Tech Challenge.
5. Yima ekuthengeni okusha okukhulu. Ungathengi amasethi amasha ekilasi e-SPIKE manje. Faka leyo mali enkundleni ozoyisebenzisa ngo-2027 nangemuva kwalokho.

Ukukala inkundla yakho elandelayo

Ayikho impendulo eyodwa elungile, kanti okushintshaniswayo ngeqiniso kuncike esabelweni sakho semali, kothisha bakho nasekutheni uyancintisana yini. Kunezindlela ezintathu ezibanzi ezifanele ukuqhathaniswa:

Indlela	Ifanele bani	Okumele ukuqaphele
Hlala ku-SPIKE okwamanje	Izikole ezinesethi enkulu esivele ikhona namaqembu e-FLL asebenzayo	Izingxenye zokushintsha ezinciphayo nokungabi khona kokusekelwa kwesofthiwe entsha
Yiya ekhithini ye-LEGO ye-Computer Science ne-AI	Izikole ezizibophezele ohlelweni lwe-LEGO	Intengo ephakeme kusukela ku-$339.95 nekharikhulamu entsha okumele ifundwe
Yiya enkundleni evulekile, ebeka ikhodi kuqala	Izikole ezifuna izindleko eziphansi ngomfundi ngamunye nendlela eya ekubhaleni ikhodi ngombhalo	Ukusethwa okuningi ekuqaleni nokungahambisani kangako nezitini

Uma izindleko eziphansi zokusebenza nendlela eshelelayo esuka emabhulokhini iye ku-Python wangempela kubalulekile kuwe, inkundla esekelwe ku-microcontroller ifanele ukubhekwa. Ibhodi lethu le-sheenbot∞ likulolo hlobo, kanti uma kuziwa ekutholeni amakhithi noma izingxenye zokushintsha kumabhrandi ahlukene ngaphandle kokujaha izilinganiso zamanani ezingapheli, usizo lokuthola izinto zelebhu lungathwala ingxenye enkulu yalowo mthwalo.

Umyalezo osalayo

I-SPIKE ayifi ngomzuzu ukuthengiswa kuphela ngawo. Iyinkundla evuthiwe evalwa ngendlela ecacile, futhi lokho kukunika ifasitela hhayi iwa. Hlola amakhithi akho, uthenge izingxenye zokushintsha ozozidinga, uvikele isofthiwe yakho, futhi usebenzise isikhathi se-FLL esiya ku-2027-28 ukuze ukhethe ozothatha isikhundla ngokuzola kunokuba ngaphansi kwengcindezi. Uma othisha bakho bedinga usizo lokwakha kabusha izifundo zanoma yini ezolandela, ama-workshop othisha ahlelekile ayindlela esheshayo kunokuqala ekhasini elingenalutho. Ukuphela kwenkathi kuyinkinga kuphela uma kukubamba ungalungiselele.

Imibuzo evamile

Singasasebenzisa i-SPIKE ngemuva kukaJuni 2026?

Yebo. Usuku luka-30 Juni 2026 luphelisa ukuthengiswa okusha, hhayi ilungelo lakho lokusebenzisa amakhithi osunawo. Aqhubeka esebenza. Nje awukwazi ukuthenga amanye ngezindlela ezisemthethweni, futhi ukusekelwa kwesofthiwe kuyancipha ngokuhamba kwesikhathi.

Ingabe amaqembu e-FLL adinga ukushintsha ngokushesha?

Cha. I-FLL ivumela i-SPIKE kuze kuphele isizini yango-2027-28, ngakho amaqembu amaningi anezinye iminyaka emibili yemincintiswano yokuhlela ushintsho.

Ingabe ikhithi entsha ye-Computer Science ne-AI ingene ngqo esikhundleni sale endala?

Hhayi ngokugcwele. Iqala ku-$339.95 futhi iza nekharikhulamu yayo, ngakho beka esabelweni kokubili i-hardware nesikhathi sothisha sokuyifunda.
