WhalesBot Rocky Robot Car Kit (Ages 6–12)

Hands-On Robotics Engineering

The Rocky Robot Car is built around a durable metal chassis and programmable controller. Students assemble the car using the included building guide and connect sensors and motors to create a fully functional robotics system. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

The system includes:

• Ultrasonic sensor (distance detection 5–300cm)
• 5-in-1 grayscale sensor for line tracking
• Integrated RGB LED and buzzer
• Remote control unit

Autonomous Modes

Rocky supports built-in robotics behaviours including:

• Line Following Mode – Automatically follows a track using grayscale sensors
• Obstacle Avoidance Mode – Detects and responds to objects using ultrasonic sensing
• Remote Control Mode – Manual navigation via controller

These features allow teachers to introduce autonomous systems, sensing, control logic and real-world robotics challenges.

App-Based Coding & Programming

Rocky can be programmed using the WhalesBot software platform, allowing students to move beyond preset modes and design their own logic sequences and behaviours.

This makes Rocky ideal for:

• Upper Primary STEM modules
• Coding clubs and competitions
• Project-based robotics challenges
• Transitioning to advanced robotics systems

Power & Charging

• Rechargeable 3.7V 2000mAh lithium battery (controller)
• Charging via USB Type-C
• Remote control requires 3 × AAA batteries (not included)

A standard delivery charge of €6.95 will be applied to the majority of orders under €150. We usually don't charge delivery for orders over €150. Other charges may apply if heavier products (clay, plaster, reams of paper etc) or large equipment (desks, cabinets etc) are ordered, but we will notify you before the invoice is issued and goods are dispatched.
