xTool mBot2 V1.0 Educational Robot (P1010132)

xTool mBot2 V1.0 Educational Robot
The xTool mBot2 V1.0 Educational Robot is a STEM kit designed for learning programming and robotics, as well as exploring topics related to artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things (IoT), and data analysis. Its control center is the CyberPi with an ESP32 microprocessor, and the kit includes, among other things, a microphone and light sensor built into the Cybers, an external Ultrasonic Sensor 2, a quad RGB sensor, and precision motors with encoders. The robot can follow a line, detect obstacles, respond to light and sound, and perform precisely programmed movements. Support for block-based programming and Python means that mBot2 can accompany users both during their first coding exercises and when working on more complex projects.


CyberPi – Control, Programming, and Communication
CyberPi uses an ESP32 microprocessor and is responsible for running programs and handling the robot’s communication. Support for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and USB connections offers several ways to work with the kit, depending on the device used and the project being developed. The mBot2 supports block-based programming, which makes it easier to learn the basics of creating algorithms, as well as the Python programming language, allowing users to gradually transition to more advanced coding. The available software enables learning on computers and mobile devices, so the robot can be used both at home and during educational activities.


Sensors that allow the robot to respond to its surroundings
The external Ultrasonic Sensor 2 detects objects and distances, allowing you to create programs that enable the robot to react to obstacles in its path. The Quad RGB Sensor uses four sensors to recognize colors and lines, enabling both basic and more advanced scenarios for following a designated path. Light and sound detection functions, on the other hand, are handled by components located directly within the CyberPi—the built-in light sensor and microphone. This solution allows you to combine data from various sources and create projects in which the robot’s behavior depends on changes in its environment.


Precise Movement and Expandability
The mBot2 uses motors with encoders that measure rotation with an accuracy of 1°, making it easier to control direction, distance traveled, and programmed maneuvers. The motors can reach speeds of up to 200 rpm, making the robot suitable for both gentle exercises requiring precise movement and more dynamic projects. The mBot2 Shield allows you to connect external components, including those compatible with the Makeblock ecosystem, enabling further development of your projects. As a result, the kit can be used not only to complete pre-designed exercises but also to build your own projects during STEM classes, in makerspaces, or at home.
