What is a Cybug?

Back

 
The Cybug Series is a new, exciting type of educational kit. It combines elements of electronics, robotics, mechanics, and biology in a unique and lovable form. It's instructional, very easy to build, and fun to customize. The instruction manual is easy to read and describes how to solder, the function of each component, and the components function in the actual robot. These kits are intended for novice roboticists.
 
The operating Cybug acts as a living organism, with behaviour and instinct designed in its circuitry.  One of the most interesting characteristics of the Cybug is its ability to seek out its own food source and energize itself. Just as a honeybee is attracted to a flower for its nectar, the Cybug is drawn to the light of the Sun-Flower, where it is provided with a meal of raw energy, which it charges it's batteries with!
 
The Cybug is just one member of a new robotic eco-system which parallels nature in a unique and fascinating manner while educating its owners in fundamentals of electronics, robotics, biology, and control systems. It is available either in kit form or with circuit board completed.
