Construction and programming are essential to developing young minds. This TAMIYA construction kit takes Tamiya’s CAM PROGRAM ROBOT to the next level with its first product in the new Programming Robot Series. The kit includes a BBC micro:bit computer which controls the model when it is finished, and can even be modified with your own unique program. The possibilities are endless, not least for STEM work with those studying the application of programming in the classroom.
