Otto, the Electronic Sensor Robot by Educational Insights
Wire a visitor alarm to warn you when someone enters a room
Measure light levels around your home with a photometer
Prevent the bathtub from overflowing with a high-water alarm
Explore the intricacies of electronics as you conduct 20+ project experiments that bring Otto to life! This unique, versatile circuit board reveals the secrets of electronic "senses." With the help of the accompanying guide, you can disconnect and reconnect Otto's wiring to experiment with light, sound, magnetism, and touch. You'll gain an understanding of voltage, current flow, and other electronic properties as you create photometers, flashlight "gun," visitor alarms, rain detectors, speech conductors, and more. Learn the basics of electronics, with no special tools or soldering required. Requires one 9-volt battery, not included.
Includes: spring coil "breadboard" with electronic components, color-coded wires, touch sensitive pad, light sensor, speaker, illustrated instruction manual, and more.
