Geckobot – The Wall Climbing Robot

Mimicking a real gecko, this wall-climbing robot has a motorised air suction system that enables it to walk vertically up and down perfectly smooth surfaces, like glass, plastic, whiteboards, and glossy laminates. Children can build 6 other models and conduct experiments with suction to learn about air pressure and the mechanical physics of this unique device. They can also build models of an industrial robotic arm with a vacuum suction cup gripper, crawling inch worm, smartphone holder, suction tow truck and car, ellipsograph, and suction gun. This set includes a 24-page, full-colour manual guide with scientific information and explanations. Suitable for age 8+.
