UBTECH JIMU BuzzBot & MuttBot Programmable STEM Robot Kit

The UBTECH JIMU BuzzBot & MuttBot Kit is an interactive build-and-code robotics kit designed to introduce children to robotics, programming, engineering and creative problem-solving through hands-on play.

Using 264 snap-together parts and 6 smooth-motion robotic servo motors, children can build the dancing BuzzBot, the four-legged MuttBot, or create their own original JIMU robot designs.

Once assembled, the robot can be controlled and programmed using the JIMU Robot App on a compatible iOS or Android device.

Build BuzzBot or MuttBot

The kit provides everything needed to construct either of two main robot designs.

BuzzBot

Build a fun dancing robot capable of performing programmed movements and custom actions.

MuttBot

Build a robotic four-legged companion and program it to walk, move and perform different actions.

Children are not limited to these two designs. The modular JIMU construction system can also be used to create original robot designs.

6 Robotic Servo Motors

The kit includes 6 smooth-motion robotic servo motors that provide movement to the assembled robot.

Unlike basic DC-motor construction kits, servo motors allow controlled positioning of individual joints, making it possible to create coordinated walking, dancing and other robotic movements.

Blockly Visual Programming

The JIMU Robot App includes Blockly-based graphical programming, allowing users to create programs by arranging visual coding blocks rather than writing traditional text-based code.

Children can program their robot to:

• Walk
• Dance
• Move
• Turn
• Perform Custom Actions
• Execute Sequences of Movements

This provides an accessible introduction to programming concepts such as sequencing, commands, logic and repetition.

Pose, Record, Play – PRP

The JIMU system also includes PRP (Pose, Record, Play) functionality.

Users can physically position the robot into different poses, record those positions and combine them into a movement sequence.

This allows children to create customized robot actions without needing to program every individual servo movement manually.

Interactive 3D Building Instructions

Assembly instructions are available through the JIMU Robot App.

Interactive 3D animated instructions guide users through the construction process step by step and allow the robot model to be viewed from different angles.

No specialized tools are required for normal assembly.

Create Your Own Robot

The modular construction system encourages users to go beyond the standard BuzzBot and MuttBot designs.

The snap-together components, servo motors and control system can be rearranged to experiment with original robotic creations.

This encourages:

• Creative Thinking
• Mechanical Design
• Problem Solving
• Programming
• Logical Thinking
• Engineering Skills

STEM Learning

The BuzzBot & MuttBot Kit combines physical construction with software programming, making it suitable for STEM education.

Students can explore concepts related to:

• Science
• Technology
• Engineering
• Mathematics
• Robotics
• Programming
• Mechanical Movement
• Servo Control
• Algorithmic Thinking

Smartphone / Tablet Required

A compatible iOS or Android smartphone or tablet is required to access the JIMU Robot App and its programming and interactive building functions.

The mobile device is not included with the kit.

Applications

Ideal for STEM education, robotics classes, coding activities, schools, technology clubs, home learning, robotics workshops, beginner programming, engineering education, creative building, educational gifts and hands-on robotics projects.

Important Note

The kit contains small parts and is not suitable for children under 3 years of age.

The recommended age for independent educational use is 8 years and above.

A compatible iOS or Android device is required for the JIMU Robot App.

This kit provides the components to build BuzzBot OR MuttBot at one time, rather than two complete independent robots simultaneously, because the two designs share the supplied controller, servos and construction components.
